Job Event data not cleaned up by Management Job?

Hi, we have a few small jobs that run very frequently (every 5-6 minutes) with about 10 tasks per run.
We noticed that the main_jobevents table is filling up very quickly (13gb in around three weeks of use) and the events don’t seem to get cleaned up by the management job “Cleanup Job Schedule”

The jobs are no longer visible in the GUI and jobs API seems to return the correct output, but the job events are still there.

We don’t see anything glaring in the Postgres logs, and we are on version AWX 9.3.0.

Is there something we’re missing regarding getting these events deleted?

Thanks,
Susan

Hi,

You are correct, the events are supposed to be cleaned up alongside the jobs.

Could you please open an issue on AWX so that we can better track this occurrence? https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues

thank you,
