About this task

Changing Health Log Analytics system properties affects back-end processes and can produce unexpected results. Therefore, if you need to make changes to these properties, keep a record of your adjustments. For example, note the value before and after a modification and the time of the change.

Note: To modify a Health Log Analytics system property whose Requires restart value is true, contact ServiceNow support to modify it for you.
