Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-7039:
-----------------------------------------

[~kpauls] I think the patch is ok. If I understand it correctly you wait the configured time in between clean ups which means that in some cases jobs are staying there for nearly double the configured time (e.g. if they are created 47h 59minutes before the clean up task runs). That should be fine but might create confusion (I see a three days old job there although the configuration is set to two days)

> Currently, whenever a job is removed by a user (or client code), the job is kept as a dropped job - regardless of whether a history should be kept for these types of jobs. The same happens if the job can't be scheduled (error).
> This information is useful for trouble shooting (to find out if a particular job has been created at all or not).
> Now, as the job impl is keeping track of these things, I think it also should be the job impl which cleans this up. The configuration for this would be a time period during which these jobs are kept (like 48h or something). All older jobs are removed.
> Or in other words: the job impl should periodically run the HistoryCleanUpTask to remove jobs in state DROPPED and ERROR which are older than the configured time.
> I think the time would be a global configuration of the job handling, defaulting to 48h
