Obsidian comes bundled with free jobs for common tasks. These are provided in addition to Scripting Jobs to reduce implementation and testing time for common job functions.
Obsidian Maintenance Jobs
These jobs are provided to help maintain the Obsidian installation.
Job History Cleanup Job
This job will delete job history and related records beyond a configurable age in days. This is useful for keeping the database compact and clearing out old, unneeded data.

Note: We recommend high volume users schedule the job weekly or less frequently and to schedule it for a non-peak time.
