I’m looking at v1.9.0 of Longhorn. The version JUST released. And the change to the orphan-auto-deleting setting. What if I want to both have Longhorn delete orphan replica-data AND orphaned instances. Will I get that scenario by specifying: 
orphanResourceAutoDeletion: instance
in my 
Longhorn
settings? Thank you very much
It’s not clear to me by reading the docs.

Hi @late-needle-80860, per the documentation the custom resources and the engine both will be deleted by the above setting per the docs here - https://longhorn.io/docs/1.9.0/advanced-resources/data-cleanup/orphaned-instance-cleanup/#orphaned-runtime-instance
Does that help clarify? Or was it something else you were asking?

So by setting 
orphanResourceAutoDeletion
to 
instance
both orphaned Longhorn instances AND orphaned replicas will be deleted
We had the old orphan deletion setting to true before … and I still want the resulting behaviour: replicas deleted. And now that I can get 
orphaned instances
deleted - I want that too. How do I achieve this?
?

You can use 
;
to specify what orphans you want to clean up. cc @billowy-painting-56466 @icy-agency-38675

For example, to automatically delete replica data and orphan instance: 
replica-data;instance

Wonderful. Thanks. I’ll try it out. This was certainly not clear from the docs … at least not to me 🤠 😉
But, I see I apparently should’ve read the docs better.

Thanks @late-needle-80860 for pointing out what we can improve. Would you like to submit a PR for improving the doc? https://github.com/longhorn/website/tree/master/content/docs/1.10.0/advanced-resources/data-cleanup
