Scheduling Cleanup Options

The SUP Administrator or SUP Domain Administrator schedules domain-level data maintenance cleanup.

Set up an automatic schedule for database cleanup:

  1. In the left pane, select the cluster, then the domain.
  2. In the right pane, select the Scheduled Tasks tab.
  3. Select one of the cleanup options:
    Option Description
    Subscription Cleanup
    Removes subscriptions that are no longer referenced by any active users.
    • Replication-based synchronization – removes subscriptions not used since the last synchronization.
    • Message-based synchronization – removes subscriptions if Unwired Server has not received a synchronization message since the given date.
    Error History Cleanup Removes historical data on MBO data refresh and operation replay failures, which result from system or application failures. System failures may include network problems, credential issues, and back-end system failure. Application failures may include invalid values, and nonunique data.
    Note: Only error messages are removed.
    Client Log Cleanup Removes client log records that have already been synchronized to the device, or are no longer associated with active users.
    Synchronization Cache Cleanup Removes logically deleted rows in the cache that are older than the oldest synchronization time on record in the system. Synchronization activity for all clients establish the oldest synchronization time. This cleanup task also removes unused or stale partitions.
  4. Click Properties.
  5. In the Task Properties dialog, select the Schedule tab, and set the appropriate options:
    • Schedule repeat – select how often the schedule should run. Options are hourly, daily, custom, and never.
      • If you select hourly or daily, specify:
        • Start date – select the date and time the automated cleanup should begin. Use the calender picker, and 24-hour time selector.
        • End date – select the date and time the automated cleanup should end.
        • Days of the week – select each day the automated cleanup schedule should run.
      • If you select custom, you can specify the interval granularity by seconds, minutes, or hours, as well as other date and time parameters.
      • If you select never, no scheduling options are available.
  6. In the Task Properties dialog, select the Options tab, set the number of inactive days for which to purge.
    Note: This step is unnecessary for Synchronization Cache Cleanup.
  7. Click OK to save the schedule properties and purge options.
