There are also some tools in the OSOps repository (Nova for example has

Subject: Re: [Openstack-operators] How do you handle purge of database tables ?

Some projects (e.g. cinder) have tools..
`cinder-manage db-purge` or maybe it's "db purge" or something along those 
lines...
It was around Kilo when that got added.

Otherwise, in the past, I've done
mysql backup, then a massive table by table purge of "deleted=1" rows.

Hello,

While digging in nova's database, I found that many objects ar not really 
deleted, but instead just marked deleted.
In fact, it's a general behavior in other projects (cinder, glance...).

I understand that. It can be handy.

But, is there a way to handle regular purging of theses elements inside 
OpenStack configuration ?

Or do we, operators, have to create batchs to purge all that ?

I've found some blueprints indicating that there nothing for now, inside 
OpenStack :

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/purge-deleted-instances-cmd
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/database-purge
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/database-purge
