Description

ISSUE TYPE
  • Feature Idea
SUMMARY

Ansible Tower job templates (and workflow templates) allow for schedules to be configured. Schedules that have completed or no longer reoccur still remain listed on that job template. Therefore there should be a management job added to cleanup "old" or inactive schedules on job templates. For now, these need to be manually deleted.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the existing schedule model and job template views. Identify how schedules are created and what fields indicate they are inactive. Create a new management command to delete schedules that are past their recurrence end date or have no future runs. Test the command manually or via unit tests.
