Setting Options for Deletion
188
3. Select the options that you want:
- Allow scheduled deletions during database backups
By default, a scheduled deletion stops when an Interplay backup begins, and resumes
when the backup ends or at the next scheduled deletion. Select this option to allow both
processes to operate at the same time.
- Permanently delete assets and associated online media from the Orphan Clips folder
Select this option if you want to include assets with media in the scheduled deletion. If
this option is not selected, links with media are moved to the Kept Media folder.
- Delay scheduled deletion by at least x days from the asset deletion date
Select this option if you want to delay the scheduled deletion by a specified number of
days. You can specify 1 to 30 days. This option gives you the opportunity to review the
contents of the Orphan Clips folder before the scheduled deletion. To help determine
which links will be deleted, you can check the asset deletion date in the Date Deleted
column (see “New Properties for Deletion” on page 186
).
For example, imagine that you selected this option with a time period of 1 day (24
hours), and a deletion is scheduled for 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. It's 6 p.m. Friday, March 25, and
you delete a group of assets and media. The assets are moved to the Orphan Clips folder
and scheduled for deletion at 2 a.m. Sunday morning, March 27 (32 hours later). This
scheduled deletion will include any assets deleted at or before 2 a.m. on Saturday,
March 26 (24 hours before the start of the scheduled deletion).
The following diagram illustrates this example.
4. Specify a time span for the deletion.
By default, a 24-hour time span is specified (00:00 to 24:00). This setting means deletion of
database assets take place at approximately the same time that the links and media are
deleted. You should set a more limited time span to cover a time when the Interplay Engine
is not being used very much. For example, a facility might set the time span for 2:00 am to
4:00 am.
One time span must always be present. Each time span is limited to one day (24 hours). If
you want to schedule a deletion period that extends from one day to another, such as 11:00
pm to 1:00 am, you need to create two time spans:
