Description:
I want to keep logs for over 52-week.

I know about 'Data Purge Behavior' setting in Global setting on Settings.
But I can set from 'Never', '1 week' to '52 weeks'.

Is there any method to keep logs over 52 weeks? (for example, 104 weeks, or so)
Or please add a more sophisticated UI to allow me to support values other than 1 to 52 weeks. (e.g. 1-year, 2-year, ...., or a dialog for setting a values).

How to repeat:
See settings for 'Data Purge Behavior' setting in Global setting on Settings.

Suggested fix:
1) Add over 52-week entry, like '1-year, 2-year, ...., 9-year'.

or

2) Add a new dialog for setting these values.

Do you mean the mysql-monitor.log files, or monitored data collections?

A 'change' entry has been added to the 2.1.0 changelog:

It was not possible to keep logs for a specific period of more than 52 weeks. The value for purging logs could be set in Settings, Global Settings to values ranging from “Never” to “52 Weeks” using the drop down list boxes.

The interface has now been changed to additionally offer periods of 18 months and 24 months.
