AEM 6.1

Is there an AEM 6.1 doc that covers required regular maintenance?

i.e. The following list:

  1. Data Store Garbage Collection
  2. Consistency Checks
  3. Traversal Checks
  4. TarPM / TarMK Optimization
  5. Tar Index Merge

Hi,

apologies, as I was mistaken with consistency and traversal check. The page I referenced was for running these checks as part of the cleanup process for your 5.x instance when upgrading to 6.x

The maintenance tasks you require for 6.1 are now documented[0]:

  • Datastore garbage collection when using an external file data store
  • Revision cleanup: Offline tar compaction. 
  • Version Purge
  • Workflow purge
  • Audit purge 

Regards,

Opkar

Yes, I tried the steps provide in  "https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/deploy/upgrade/consistency-check.html" which can be done through JMX

I'm trying to do consistency and traversal check in AEM 6.1 through JMX console and getting null as response while invoking.

Can any one please help me on the same?

You can still do a consistency check: https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/deploy/upgrade/consistency-check.html

There is no TarPM optimization, it's tar compaction. There is also no index merge.

As for Garbage collection, taken from: http://cq-ops.tumblr.com/post/118956524094/shell-script-to-trigger-blobgc : "In Oak, the good old “Data Store garbage collection” maintenance operation is called “BlobGC” or Binary Large Object Garbage Collection.  This applies in cases where the Data Store is either “File” or “S3″"

 

Currently there does not seem to be a single source of information for all the tasks required, so it's a case of reviewing the above documentation. Hopefully this should come along, similair to http://cq-ops.tumblr.com/post/29627149909/recommended-sequence-of-cq-maintenance-operations

Tasks for TarMK: Version purge, workflow purge, revision cleanup tar compaction. If using an external datastore, add BlobGC
