The OLAT administrator will be supported to delete inactive (not used over certain time) learning resources. The workflow to delete inactive learning resources includes three steps :
Inactive learning resources :
List of learning resources which have not been used since xx months(e.g. 24 month, limit can be configurated). You can inform the owners of selected learning resources via e-mail about the imminent deletion of their resources.
That deletion can be prevented by clicking Activate. You can select the learning resources which you want to delete and press the 'send notification email' button. In a popup you can edit or disable the notification email. The selected learning resources will be removed form the 'Inactive learning resources' list and moved to the 'E-mail sent' list.
E-mail sent :
List of learning resources which have been notified via e-mail about the imminent deletion of their resources. The period for reaction (answer via e-mail or starting the resource) has not yet expired (e.g. 30 days, limit can be configurated). That deletion can be prevented by clicking Activate.
Ready to delete :
List of learning resources which are ready for deletion. The period of 30 days for reaction has expired. By clicking Activate you can prevent the deletion of user accounts.
The deleted learning resources can not be recovered.
The learning resource will be archived in a ZIP file at : ARCHIVE_PATH/archive_deleted_resources/DELETE_DATE/del_group_DELETED_RESOURCE_NAME. The ARCHIVE_PATH can be configrated in build.properties with property 'archive.dir' (e.g. archive.dir=C:/temp/deleted_archive). The directory can be somewhere in the filesystem. The idea is, that the archive directory is outside of olat-system. The OLAT system did not use the archived data and the archived data can not be recovered into the OLAT system.
