In Server Statistics of the Webclient, what does "Weeks until next expiration" mean?

Reply:

This "expiration" refers to the process where the ER expires or purges it's oldest data to make room for new data. The number of weeks listed in this field is an estimation of when the database will be near full. For example, if the next expiration is listed as 3 weeks, this simply means that in about 3 weeks, at least one weeks worth of data will be dropped. This is an automatic process that occurs only when the ER senses that it will run out of table space for new data.
