Deleting finished workflow runs

[ChrisMueller]

Is there a way  to delete all finished workflow runs automatically ?

We are having a scheduler witch is running every 5 minutes, so there are a lot of workflow runs in our orchestrator.

Hi!

You can set the numbers in the webbased configuration. However,this affect all workflows.

AFAIK there is no way to delete the token e.g. in a script or another workflow.

Maybe you can delete them manually in the database (but thats not supported, I guess). For that, find some ideas here:

In the web configuration / General / advanced configuration the "Max number of runs" will make sure there will not be more then this number of runs per workflow.

Removing of completed w/f run's is done automatically. Starting from vCO 5.5.2 it is possible to configure the specific time/period when the clean job is run using cron expression

For example to configure custom schedule for the clean job set following property in vmo.properties file:

By default clean job is run every hour

com.vmware.o11n.purge.executions.cron=0 0 * * * ?

Details for cron expression can be found here.

Quartz Scheduler | Documentation | Quartz 1.x Tutorials: crontrigger

As already explained number of preserver w/f runs is configurable trough vCO Configurator.
