Automated jobs

ZaneOps regularly runs the following automated jobs:

• Log collection every 5 seconds
• Metrics collection for each service every 30 seconds
• Automated Docker system cleanup every 4 hours
• Log and metrics cleanup every day at midnight

Log & metrics retention policy

To optimize storage on your server, the log and metrics cleanup job:

• Deletes logs older than 14 days (2 weeks)
• Deletes metrics older than 30 days

Only application logs are deleted; HTTP logs are retained.

Automated Docker System Cleanup

The automated system cleanup runs every 4 hours and performs the following steps in order:

1. Remove all unused images
2. Remove all unused containers
3. Remove all unused volumes (except those managed by ZaneOps)
4. Remove all unused networks

You can find the source code for the system cleanup job here.

Good to Know

This job runs only when no deployments are in progress.
