Help/question with Delete all orphaned entities option

[L0bit0]

Hi

I am starting to use spook to clean my HA.

I launched "Delete all orphaned entities" action/service but after this i still can see a long list of orphaned entities.

I expected to do not have these entities anymore, I am missing anything? or spook jut remove the data of these entities, but entities are still on the DB?

I am missing anything?

Some additional info.

• I also create a script based on the documentation:

I restarted HA before check again...

Can you help me to understand if there is an issue or i am missing anything?

Thanks!

You are mixing up cleaning up of orhpaned entities in the state machine and registries vs the database history. Those are not the same things.

Thanks for your quick response.

Sorry, but I am not following you, what "Delete all orphaned entities" should do? I am assuming this should delete history of all orphan entities, so once executed this, "List all orphaned database entities" should not return any entries, correct?

I now realize the script will remove data history on the DB, but not the entity itself.

Sorry in advance if I am missing any concept.

Thanks!
