Workflow purge unable to purge huge number of archive workflow instances

Avatar

Level 5

Hi Everyone,

We noticed in our AEM environment that the number of archive workflows are over 2 million and then we have configured Adobe Granite Workflow Purge Configuration to purge Completed/Aborted/Failed workflows of a certain model but it does not seem to purge, we notice that there is a query traversal for the configured workflow model which is affecting the author environment performance.

We missed to configure purge scheduler earlier and by the time we noticed there are 2 million archived workflow instances.

Can anyone help us how we can clean up or purge this huge number of workflow instances now?

Hi 

This thread might help https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-experience-manager/delete-large-amount-of-wor...

We may start from low number and based on performance and time it take we can increase or decrease

Sorry for the delay in getting back, there were more than 2 million archive workflows, scheduler to purge workflows and deleted few from crx/explorer. Offline tar compactor also helped in resolving the issue.
