Learn how to modify a maintenance plan to delete files older than a defined timeframe.
- [Instructor] In this section,…we're going to look at modifying the maintenance plan…that we created in the previous section.…So, I'll go to that maintenance plan,…right click on it, and go to Modify.…This will pull up a little bit of a different interface.…When we created the maintenance plan, we used a wizard,…but when we modify it, we don't use a wizard,…so the interface is a little different.…We're going to use this main design window,…and also the toolbox.…If the toolbox didn't appear for you automatically,…you can get it off the View menu, go to Toolbox,…and here in the toolbox, we see a list of all the tasks…that can be performed in a maintenance plan.…
The one I'm interested in is a cleanup task.…This is going to go in and delete some of the old files,…so I'm going to drag Maintenance Cleanup Task…onto the main design surface.…I'd like this cleanup task to run after…the full database backup, so I'll click on the box…that represents the Back Up Database Full task,…then I'll take the green arrow that comes out of the bottom…
