text: **10.5.2 Expiring indexes**
  
  The**ARSMAINT**program uses the Expiration Type field value to determine how to delete index 
  data from an application group. The**ARSMAINT**program can expire a table of application group 
  data at a time, a load at a time, or individual documents. Ensure that the**ARSMAINT**program 
  command runs periodically (for example, daily) so that Content Manager OnDemand deletes 
  indexes and cache data (and the storage manager deletes archive data, if applicable). By 
  running the**ARSMAINT**program regularly, you ensure that the expired documents can no 
  longer be retrieved. 
  
  Additionally, you can start manual expiration processing by running the**ARSMAINT**program 
  from the command line. For example, to run expiration processing, run the following 
  command at the command line: 
  
  arsmaint -d 
  
  When the**ARSMAINT**program removes indexes, it saves the following message in the system 
  log: 
  
  “128 ApplGrp Segment Expire (ApplGrp) (Segment)” 
  
  One message is saved in the system log for each table that was dropped during expiration 
  processing.
