Best Approach to delete documents after 8 years

[sathiyaseelan]

Hi

We are in need to delete documents after 8 years from the time they have been created.

FYI Per day around 15000 documents will be generated.And we are using Custom content Model also.

And what would be best approach to delete the documents.

Here are my thoughts.

1.Can I delete documents at FileSystem level using a scheduler in shell script?

2.Can I use scheduler in Alfresco?

3. Is there anyway I could implement using Rules in Alfresco?


Any suggestions /thoughts are welcomed.

Remember to take also care of Alfresco document lifecycle policy http://www.ixxus.com/blog/2011/09/alfresco-node-lifecycle when deleting content.
