To ensure that the documents in your IDOL Server are current, you can run an expiration operation, which deletes or archives documents that reach a specific age. You can expire documents:
at regular intervals, by setting up a scheduled expiration operation
By default, IDOL Server deletes documents when they expire. To archive them instead, enter the name of the database to use for archiving as the value of the ExpireIntoDatabase
parameter in each of the IDOL Server configuration file database sections.
IDOL Server can read the date that determines when a document expires from:
a field in the document.
the expiration time that you set for the database that contains the document.
IDOL Server does not expire the document if it is unable to determine whether a document must expire (for example, because it does not contain the expiration field, and the database has no expiration time).
