hi iclaude,

can you name us what your expected times are to run the GA?

you have configured something like specific 5 days in the week, at 21h, at the named minutes.
This looks wrong to me for archiving tickets, but I do not know your required business case

Hi hkais,

The generic agent is supposed to run everyday, and every minute at 21:00/9PM to arquive all tickets that where closed more than 4 months ago.
But its always skipping that and its running at 00:00/12PM When I check.

Hope I answered correctly what you asked.
What would be your recommendation?

Best Regards

Hello iclaude,

What is the value of your OTRSTimeZone, the servers timezone and the output bin/otrs.Console.pl Maint::Daemon::Summary?

this is the proper schedule to define to run at
21:01 every day

to find the tickets, this shall be sufficient:

and finally operate only on tickets which are not archived

and I hope the Update section shall be clear, also consider to update the note to say you archived it (for default users, who are too lazy to read history)
