I've found this below for you. It makes a reference to the smp_db folder in pdt, where the files are kept.

STAT BUF command in LD 117 the CDR buffer never shows less than 96.5% full.

Problem Description
----------------------------------
DBA has been configured on OTM to collect CDR info. If we use the STAT BUF command in LD 117 the CDR buffer never shows less than 96.5% full.

When STAT BUF is entered we are seeing the following response:
ld 117
OAM000

=> stat buf

CDR ENL
TRF DIS
STN DIS
Storage space is 96.5% full
Connected to 172.18.18.200

We are also seeing IOD365 alarm listed in history file which may indicate LAN failure although there is no indication that this is the case. The Field engineer has also observed IOD366-IOD370 alarms indicating buffer overflow and reset.

IOD365 Data send failed, retry timeout,
addr=172.18.18.139, sCount=3, rCount=0.

IOD370 172.18.18.139

I have checked smp_db in pdt and there multiple files dating back to February, so it looks like these are not being deleted, these are listed in the attachment.

This patch mplr20359 for 04.50W will delete all DBA files that are greater than 3 days old.
The patch will do this one of two different ways:
- Automatically every hour after task tDbaFile was initiated, in other words, automatically in 60 minute intervals.
- Manually by loading overlay 117 and using the command "stat buf".

On an Option 11c system, the folder location is shown below.

thanks, so another question would that lost data still be in that buffer on the CS1k. i cant find that data in TM .

I can't be certain that it's there, but to extract the file from "pdt" and look at it's contents or the date of the file.
