I have a process model which I have the option enabled for "Keep Finished Process" for "1 MINUTE". So obviously when any process instance is finished its not getting deleted from the Process Instances list, and the state is remaining as "Finished".

Now my problem is its not getting deleted even after the 1 minute timeframe as I set it in the Proces definition. Its only getting deleted from the list after I start the "Cleanup Server". I have the Cleanup server settings to run daily at midnight. So the finished processes are getting cleaned up nightly.

I tried turning on the "Immediate Cleanup" option for Execution Server, which didn't help me to delete them immediately 1 minute after finished.

Is there a way to clean them up immediately after 1 minute without running the Cleanup Server?

Thanks in Advance

What about your scheduling server settings?
For the processes to be logically deleted I think it is the scheduling server that does that.
Cleanup server does the physical deletes.

Vennela,
These are my Scheduling server settings. The server is running and the Notification check interval is only 15 seconds, and still the Process Instances are not getting deleted from the list. I can apply filter to the list, but wondering why they are not getting deleted.

By the way, I am running WF 3.4 SP6.
Code:
i
-    Scheduling server settings
-       Check interval                         PT5M
-       Start mode                             Immediate
-       Notification check interval            PT15S
-       Create notification items threshold    100
-       Delete notification items threshold    100
   FMC15053I Scheduling Server Commands Menu:
     i ... Info
     u ... Startup
     d ... Shutdown
     q ... Query
     w ... Wait
     x ... Exit Scheduling Server Commands Menu
q
-  FMC16220I Scheduling Server is 'active'.
   FMC15053I Scheduling Server Commands Menu:
     i ... Info
     u ... Startup
     d ... Shutdown
     q ... Query
     w ... Wait
     x ... Exit Scheduling Server Commands Menu

It is my opinion, that what you are seeing, is how this is going to work. I don't know that I have ever seen this documented, but this has been my experience.

John, Vennela:

Thanks for the replies.
As Cleanup server is deleting them nightly, I do not have to worry about it anyhow.
Only thing that I have something in my mind is that, how much effect it will be on the performance of WF, having around 5000 finished process instances in the list. Also it is very rare that we look at the list of Process Instances. I am also adding filters and threshold in the Process Instances list.

What do you think?

It is my opinion that unless you use Immediate cleanup, they are all there anyway. so there is no effect on MQWF performance. You might want to consider filtering them out so the users don't need to sort through them if they are looking at instance lists, doing this of course will have some effect on the network load.

Just my thoughts....
