Database Tasks Settings Tab

The Database Tasks Settings tab shows you all cleanup or optimization tasks for the internal Mirth® Connect database. Occasionally in new versions of Mirth® Connect certain things change in the underlying database but depending on the implications those changes are not always automatically performed when you upgrade. Old tables are left behind and no longer used, but those tables are not automatically deleted in case you want to keep them or back them up first. The Database Tasks Settings tab shows you all cleanup or optimization tasks for the internal Mirth® Connect database. If no tasks show up in the table, then that means your database is up-to-date.
