Maintenance Services

System maintenance and cleanup services are scheduled and tracked through a calendar and task enabling and prioritization menu.

Qlik Catalog enables enterprises to dynamically sync Qlik Catalog-managed security with Active Directory (AD) identity services and domain management. LDAP protocol is used to connect to and obtain information from AD.

Data Meter

Data meter enables administrators to view the size of data ingested to file system receiving directory and data transformed in prepare.

Table Meter

Table meter measures and reports status and compliance for customers with a contractual limit on the number of tables (registered & managed) in Qlik Catalog.

Database driver registration

Users must register drivers for all JDBC source databases. Administration provides a wizard for the modular registration of databases.

System Settings: Level Control

Level control allows users to control the level at which specified data is managed while retaining a metadata catalog.

QlikView Data (QVD) file import

Qlik Catalog allows users to import QVDs from a mapped instance of Qlik Sense.

Refresh core_env.properties file

Users can refresh the core environment properties file. This saves users from having to restart Tomcat server when changes are made to core_env.properties file.
