Hello.
We have recently gotten to the point of starting to work with cmdb health, and as part of this, automating retirement of CI's. Following the last section of KB1584797, activating Cleanup Orphan CI's, I'm wondering about your experiences. We did this in our test environment, fairly recent clone of Prod, where it ran for approx 2 days and then turned itself off. In our production environment it has been running for almost 2 weeks now, and the dependent ci ledger is getting very crowded, with ~80k CI's. In the beginning it added a large bulk, and now we're seeing 5-10 CI's added every 3 hours, mostly coming from VM's, network adapters and such. I'm thinking about setting the job to False, since according to documents, it should trigger the next job to empty the ledger. So my question to you is: What's your experience with this cleanup job, and do you have any recommendations?
