Expiry Monitor Thread

The Expiry Monitor thread is responsible for marking all the cases that have expired since the last time the thread ran. It wakes up at a much lesser frequency than the Queue Monitor Thread.

This thread works as follows:

1. It wakes up at a pre-defined and configurable interval and fetches a list of all cases:
   • That are in the OPEN or NEW state.

   and

   • For which the case update time is more than the configured expiration time.

   In other words, it looks for cases that have not been worked upon and for which no new alerts have been generated.

2. Next, the thread updates the status of all cases identified in the preceding step as EXPIRED in the RiskMinder database.
3. The thread goes back to sleep.
