How to force a cleanup operation

  • 1.  How to force a cleanup operation

    Posted Feb 27, 2018 12:48 PM

    Hi, I recently adjusted some of the clearpass cluster-wide cleanup intervals, and I'm wondering:

     

    - When does the cleanup process normally kick off?

    - Is there a way to manually force or tickle the cleanup process to begin?

     

    We're on CPPM 6.6.8. Can someone point me in the right direction?

     

    Thanks

    Mike

    Usually around 1am.

    You can do a manual cleanup using the “Cleanup” option in Server Configuration.

    Thanks for the reply, Tim. I'm not sure if that's going to do exactly what I want. When I click cleanup, it says the following will be cleaned up, which doesn't seem to include the endpoints cleanup intervals I adjusted (for example the unknown endpoint clean interval).

     

    • System and application log files
    • Past authentication records
    • Audit records
    • Expired guest accounts
    • Past auto and manual backups
    • Stored reports

    thanks

    Which version of ClearPass are you running? Endpoints are included in this cleanup in 6.7
