The start time of the time period that you want to retrieve data for (relative to the time when the synchronize task starts).
If you run a synchronize task and the connector has already retrieved data from part of the time period, it automatically adjusts the start date so that it does not retrieve data it has already retrieved.
On subsequent synchronize cycles, the connector does not send ingest-remove commands for entries that fall outside the time period. This means that data older than the relative start time is not removed from your IDOL Server index. If you want to remove older data from IDOL, Micro Focus recommends that you configure IDOL Server to expire documents.
