Add a Content Maintenance Task

Add a content maintenance task to an agent to run a content maintenance task. A content maintenance task searches the content store for user information that no longer exists in your external namespaces. It can also fix the content store by deleting any users that do not exist in your external namespaces.

For more information, see the IBM® Cognos® Administration and Security Guide
