Cleanup agent

The Platform Maintenance Scheduler (Cleanup Agent) processes the automatic cleanup of DataConnect jobs. Use the Agent Manager in the Administrator Console to define the name of the processor that is running the Cleanup Agent. In the TRIRIGAWEB.properties file, set the DC_HISTORY_RETENTION_DAYS property.

When a DataConnect entry in the DataConnect Job Control table is in the Obsolete or Completed state for the number of days in the DC_HISTORY_RETENTION_DAYS property, the Cleanup Agent is triggered. Then, the Cleanup Agent takes the following steps:

Finds the job control number of the entry and deletes entries in the staging tables for that job control number.
Deletes the DataConnect Job Control table (DC_JOB) entry.

The Cleanup Agent does not delete the Job Control business object entries (the business object in triDataConnectJob). Follow your company’s business rules for managing triDataConnectJob entries that are no longer needed. You can delete them from the system directly or with a menu that you create.
