# <a id="Datbase Housekeeping"></a>Database Housekeeping | ||
|
||
Your database may grow over time and contain some outdated information. Icinga Certificate Monitoring provides you | ||
the ability to clean up these outdated info in an easy way. | ||
|
||
## Certificates and Targets | ||
|
||
The default `cleanup` action removes targets whose last scan is older than a certain date/time and certificates that | ||
are no longer used. | ||
|
||
By default, any targets whose last scan is older than `1 month` are removed. The last scan information is always updated | ||
when scanning a target, regardless of whether a successful connection is made or not. Therefore, targets that have been | ||
decommissioned or are no longer part of a job configuration are removed after the specified period. Any certificates | ||
that are no longer used are also removed. This can either be because the associated target has been removed or because | ||
it is presenting a new certificate chain. | ||
|
||
The `cleanup` command will also remove additionally all jobs activities created before the given date/time. | ||
Jobs activities are usually just some stats about the job runs performed by the scheduler or/and manually | ||
executed using the [scan](04-Scanning.md#scan-command) and/or [jobs](04-Scanning.md#scheduling-jobs) command. | ||
|
||
### Usage | ||
|
||
This command can be used like any other Icinga Web cli operations like this: `icingacli x509 cleanup [OPTIONS]` | ||
|
||
**Options:** | ||
|
||
``` | ||
--since-last-scan=<datetime> Clean up targets whose last scan is older than the specified date/time, | ||
which can also be an English textual datetime description like "2 days". | ||
Defaults to "1 month". | ||
``` | ||
|
||
#### Example | ||
|
||
Remove any targets that have not been scanned for at least two months and any certificates that are no longer used. | ||
``` | ||
icingacli x509 cleanup --since-last-scan="2 months" | ||
``` |
