System Maintenance

SailPoint provides System Maintenance tasks with the IdentityIQ application, the Work Item Expiration Scanner, Mitigation Expiration Scanner, System Maintenance, System Maintenance Object Pruner, Role Overlap Analysis, and the Synchronize Roles task. These tasks are configured, by default, to run in the background of the application and update score card, application, and role information as needed.

In addition to the Perform Maintenance. task and the System Tasks defined to perform specific functions within your enterprise as described in Predefined Tasks, the following maintenance tasks may be defined via Setup > Tasks > New Task:

• The System Maintenance Object Pruner prunes objects in batches to improve performance. This task is not part of the System Maintenance task pruning operations and is run independently when necessary. This task is always run with partitioning enabled. This task is useful if you want to set up tasks specifically for pruning objects; pruning can also be accomplished using the System Maintenance/Perform Maintenance task, with partitioning enabled.

• The Reset Orphaned WorkItem Events task is designed to recover orphaned work item events. This is a user-driven task to determine the conditions in which a work item event is determined to be orphaned by way of workflow name, which should be restarted or discarded. The determination condition would be for work items that are of type Event, have expired locks, and are x-time beyond the date in which the Perform Maintenance task was to have run. You control x-time. A list of workflows can also be supplied used to declare for which workflows a work item would restart. Any work item that otherwise matches the search condition is purged. Details of the purged work items can be captured in the task result or Work Item Archive.
