Morning All We are using prefect via a kubernetes agent. We've noticed that failed flows don't clean up prefect jobs and in some cases the dask-excecutor. Is there any passive mechanism to clean up these dead jobs ?

the easiest way to configure that would be by setting this environment variable in your Kubernetes agent deployment spec:
Copy code
export DELETE_FINISHED_JOBS=True
but it is by default True
