If automated database maintenance is enabled, the default retention days set for all guides are applied to the guides. By default, a completed guide instance remains in the Process Server database for 24 hours, that is, 1 day. A faulted guide instance remains in the Process Server database for 72 hours, that is, 3 days. The guide instances are automatically deleted after the retention period expires. The server logs remain in the Process Server database for 30 days.
