Maintenance Task: Application Revision History Cleanup

[dustinestes]

Description Create a script to be performed as part of the maintenance of the database that can remove old revisions of applications that may no longer be necessary.

• Remove based on age of revision
  • Revision History GUI does show a Date Create property.
• Remove based on folder/object path in Console view
  • Add in a path for say "retired" applications or "to be deleted" that can just remove all history regardless of age

Purpose Applications that are successfully deployed may not need revisions from previous failed packaging attempts and testing. This revision data just takes up space and causes locks/conflicts. It would be helpful to remove old data to cleanup the database.
