Zabbix Housekeeper & "Not Monitored" server

[aic]

Hi All,

I have some servers who will be deleted completely, but for a couple of weeks, I have them just disabled it.

I was curious to know if someone could confirm me this; What happen with the old data of server? Is HouseKeeper process run identical task if the device is being "Monitored" or "Not monitored"?

Please help I would like to have the database increasing too much because of it.

Thanks in advance

Thank you for your reply.

Let me check if I understood correctly, is old data deleted without paying attention if a device is "Monitored" or "Not monitored", right?
