TEAM Expired Content Delete
Released: July 31, 2012
Compatibility: 11gR1 (11.1.1.1.0+)
When content items are expired in the content server, they are removed from the search index, but remain on the file system. In time, these items can occupy valuable disk space. The TEAM Expired Content Delete component will systematically delete expired content items and their revisions after a specified time period.
This component has two configuration variables that can be set within the component to alter the time period that the content server will retain expired content, as well as the time it will initiate the removal of those content items:
• TXEExpireDuration - the amount of time the system will retain the content before deletion. The default is 90 days.
• TXEScheduledEventTime - the time on the server that the system will initiate the deletion. The default is 12:00 AM.
Notes
• This component removes all revisions of an expired content item.
• This component assumes that you are using the default expiration configuration of ExpireRevisionOnly=false, which, when set to FALSE, all revisions expire when the current revision expires.
• If you are using ExpireRevisionOnly=true, which would assume that you want keep the previous revisions when the latest version expires, then this component is not recommended, as it will remove all revisions, including those that aren't marked expired.
