Deleting WorkFlow Executing Run

[schiguru]

Hi,

How do I delete work flow execution runs in an automated manner? I see a flow called 'Delete al finished workflow runs' under Remote Management folder. But this will work against a vCO Server in the multi-node setup. I want to delete execution runs of a flow that reside on the Server that I am logged in.

Thanks,

Sri

I do not think you can directly from the scripting. A work around would be to use the REST plug-in and do it throught the API if possible.

In the vCO configuration you can set the number of max workflow runs per workflow. In the server.log you can see there is often a purge running to remove the excess of workflow runs.

Why not just re-configure your vCO servers to have a lower number of workflow runs kept? The default is 100, which can be a bit much for many so reducing to 5 or 10 will be more manageable.

1. Login to vCO Configuration Web interface
2. Click "Advanced Configuration" tab in the right pane
3. Change the value of "Maximum number of runs:" to the desired number you wish to keep (IE: 10)

Thanks Burke, We are going to set it up to 10 as we have the Server.log for future reference.
