the object and selecting <span class="uicontrol">Delete</span>. If you do not delete

<p>Collection Services deletes only <span class="uicontrol">cycled</span> management

The status of each management collection object is shown in the list of collection

select <span class="uicontrol">Collection Services</span>.</p>

<p>Collection Services
|
|
deletes the cycled collection objects that have reached their expiration date
|
|
and time the next time it starts or cycles a collection. The expiration date
|
|
is associated with the management collection object. Even if you move the
|
|
collection object to another library, Collection Services will delete the
|
|
object after it expires.</p>
|
|
<p>The expiration date for each management collection
|
|
object is shown in the Properties for that collection object. To keep the

object on the system longer, you simply change the date on the Properties

|
page. Right-click any management collection object in the list and select <span class="uicontrol">Properties</span> to
|
|
see the information about that collection. You can specify <span class="uicontrol">Permanent</span> if
|
|
you do not want Collection Services to delete your management collection objects
|

for you.</p>
