Purging profiler data

Purge Profiler Data batch processing deletes profiler data from the PolicyCenter database. This process uses the read-only ProfilerDataPurgeBatchProcess class, in conjunction with configuration parameter ProfilerDataPurgeDaysOld, to determine how many days to retain profiler data before deleting it. By default, Guidewire sets the value of ProfilerDataPurgeDaysOld to 30 days.

PolicyCenter does not schedules the PurgeProfilerData batch process in the base configuration. You must either run this process manually or add the batch process to file scheduler-config.xml.

It is possible to launch Purge Profiler Data batch processing from within PolicyCenter, or, directly from a command prompt.

PolicyCenter

Navigate to the Server Tools Batch Process Info screen and run the Purge Profiler Data batch process.

Command prompt

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

  maintenance_tools -password password -startprocess PurgeProfilerData

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.
