Setting Options for Deletion
183
You can think of deletion prior to v2.4 as synchronous, because all three parts of the process
occur at approximately the same time, during the interactive part of the deletion (that is, while
the Delete dialog box is open). Deletion in v2.4 and later is asynchronous, because deletion of
the database assets takes place after the interactive part of the deletion.

It is important to remember that in Interplay v2.4 and later the deletion process is always
asynchronous. Even if you do not select a custom deletion schedule, deletion of database
assets is separated from interactive deletion of links and media.
Default Deletion Schedule and Custom Deletion Schedules
Deletion of links in the Orphan Clips folder and the database assets always take place
asynchronously, during a scheduled time span. You can use the default deletion schedule or you
can set a custom schedule in the Interplay Administrator.
Default deletion schedule: The default deletion schedule is set as a 24-hour time span (00:00 to
24:00). In this case, the database asset deletion takes place at approximately the same time that
you run the deletion operation. As a result, links to the database assets might not be visible in the
Orphan Clips folder because they are deleted immediately after the interactive part of the
deletion. Links with online media are moved to the Kept Media folder and are not deleted (see
“Changes to the Orphan Clips Folder” on page 184).This default time span results in the least
disruption for established workflows, but it does not lessen the load that the deletion operation
places on the Interplay Engine.
For the default deletion schedule, no options in the Scheduled Deletion Options section are
selected. This is important to keep in mind if you disable a custom deletion schedule with one or
more options selected. The inactive selected options do not indicate the default schedule options
but the last custom schedule options selected.
