Purging work queue instrumentation data

Work Queue Instrumentation Purge batch processing deletes instrumentation data for work queues from the PolicyCenter database. The process uses Gosu class WorkQueueInstrumentationPurge, in conjunction with configuration parameter InstrumentedWorkerInfoPurgeDaysOld, to determine how long to retain work queue instrumentation before deletion. By default, Guidewire sets the value of InstrumentedWorkerInfoPurgeDaysOld to 45 (business) days.

In the base configuration, Guidewire schedules the WorkQueueInstrumentationPurge batch process to run on the second day of the month, at 2:30 a.m.

It is possible to launch the Work Queue Instrumentation Purge batch process from within PolicyCenter, or, directly from a command prompt.

PolicyCenter

Navigate to the Server Tools Batch Process Info screen and run the Work Queue Instrumentation Purge batch process.

Command prompt

Launch the Purge Workflows batch process from the PolicyCenter/admin/bin directory with the following command:

  maintenance_tools -password password -startprocess WorkQueueInstrumentationPurge

The PolicyCenter administration command prompt tools all require that you enter the password of an administrative user for the tool to work. The use of a user name is optional.
