This panel summarizes the settings for all cleanup jobs defined for the Business Flow Manager or Human Task Manager on a particular cluster or server. The settings can be changed, deleted, or you can define new ones.
To view this administrative console page, click , then on the Configuration tab, in the Business Process Manager section, expand Business Process Choreographer. Because the cleanup service settings and cleanup service jobs are defined separately for the Business Flow Manager and the Human Task Manager, click either Business Flow Manager or Human Task Manager, then in the Additional Properties section, click Cleanup Service Settings. If you select the Configuration tab, changes will only affect the server after it is restarted. If you select the Runtime tab, you do not need to restart the server to activate any changes, but you must select Save runtime changes to configuration as well if you want the changes to persist after the server is restarted.
