Keep Environment Clean

helmuta
We have been running into problems in our development environment with running out of memory and heap space. Cause was determined to be too many old versions of process models and rules. We created a nice little process model to clean up old versions of the process models but when it cam to the rules we did not find an easy way of deleting older versions. Does anyone have any ideas on an automate way to perform this type of clean up?

    No, the auto-cleanup is on EXEC. The product cannot assume that developers don't want a version on DESIGN anymore just because there are no running instances using that version, especially because developers might want to go back and check previous versions designs.

    This can be done only with EXEC because if you were to need an older version to run a new instance, you could still do it because the version is on DESIGN.

    Also, something important to point out, based on my experience, is that cleaning up the versions doesn't reduce the memory utilization that much.

    I have submitted a use case for the product to report what is using that amount of memory in the DESIGN engine to take the necessary corrective actions.
