Identity Governance enables Global Administrator and Data Administrator to schedule archive and cleanup maintenance tasks to run at times when the archive or cleanup will not interfere with other governance tasks. You can cancel scheduled maintenance tasks while they are running. To create a new schedule:
Select Maintenance Schedules tab and click +.
Specify a name and description.
Select a future time as start time for maintenance task and set recurrence. The first run time will be the current hour, day, week, or month. Then the maintenance task repeats based on the specified schedule.
(Optional) Specify the maximum archive time. Maximum archive time is the length of time (in minutes) the archiving task/process runs before automatically stopping. It prevents user operation lock out for extended period and ensures that the archiving task has sufficient time to complete successfully. If unspecified, the archiving continues until it completes.
Identity Governance calculates the archiving task end time by adding the maximum archive time to the scheduled start time. The end time is an absolute time. Even if a scheduled maintenance task starts later than the specified start time (because a previous maintenance task is still running), the end time remains the same.
For example, if the schedule start time is 3:00 PM and maximum archive time is 180 minutes, the archiving task ends at 6:00 PM regardless of when the archiving actually started.
Select maintenance task option.
Select Archive Only to specify the schedule for automatic data archiving. Once the scheduled run starts, Identity Governance waits for all background processes to complete and then triggers archiving. All user operations are disabled during this process.
NOTE:If archiving is disabled, this schedule is skipped.
Select Cleanup Only to specify the cleanup schedule, and to specify the entity types to clean up and their retention days. For data to be cleaned up, it should satisfy the conditions described in Section 13.5, Identifying Purgeable Data. You can perform governance operations while cleanup is running.
Select Archive and Cleanup to schedule archiving and cleanup. Once archiving is complete, cleanup starts automatically based on specified data types.
NOTE:If archiving is disabled, the archive phase is skipped and Identity Governance performs cleanup as if a Cleanup Only option was selected. When this occurs, the data must satisfy the conditions described in Section 13.5, Identifying Purgeable Data.
Activate the schedule and save the schedule, or save the schedule and activate it later.
