Recall Number Z-1261-2018

REASON
When the archiving configuration is changed, data received/created after the upgrade may be flagged as “Not to be archived”. This is caused by the automatic function for cleaning up temporary data being disabled by the software upgrade. Due to the disabled cleanup function, disc capacity for free space decreases faster than usual. Unless the archiving configuration and the cleanup automatic function are reverted back to the original state (prior to the software upgrade), data that was incorrectly flagged “Not to be archived” must be manually prevented from being deleted by either clinical administrator or service engineer.
