Configuring the time of permanently deleting data sets.
Dear all, I am currently trying to find a way to decrease the time the users need to wait to permanently delete their data sets. In galaxy I read the following "Histories that have been deleted for more than a time period specified by the Galaxy administrator(s) may be permanently deleted."; I am wondering where can I configure this option in my local instance of galaxy. I have looked for such an option in the universe_wsgi.ini file but I have not found it. I would greatly appreciate if someone can point me to the right direction to modify this. Thank you all, --Ricardo Perez
Hi Ricardo, You might want to take a look at this[1] page in the wiki. The short answer is there is no way to configure purging datasets in Galaxy itself. It would be nice to do so. Galaxy does provide an external script that can be easily put in a cron job to do this. The script is cleanup_dataset.py and you want to take a look at option "-d".

Ricardo, You can configure galaxy such that it will allow users to permanently delete and purge datasets from their own histories. After deleting by pressing the cross...select 'include deleted datasets' from the history menu. There you can undelete but also purge immediately from disk. So if they are in a hurry or need the space within their quota they can do it like that... see scrndmp.
