# Which Problems Are Solved
Migration step 39 is supposed to cleanup stale organization entries in
the eventstore.fields table. In order to do this it used the projection
to check which orgs still exist.
During initial setup of ZITADEL the first instance with the organization
is created. Howevet, the projections are filled after all migrations are
done. With the organization projection empty, the fields of the first
org would be deleted.
This was discovered during development of a new field type. The
accosiated events did not yet have any projection based filled assigned.
It seems fields with a pre-fill projection are somehow restored.
Therefore a restoration migration isn't required IMO.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Query the event store for `org.removed` events instead. This has the
drawback of using a sequential scan on the eventstore, making the
migration more expensive.
# Additional Changes
- none
# Additional Context
- Introduced in https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/8946
# Which Problems Are Solved
When an org is removed, the corresponding fields are not deleted. This
creates issues, such as recreating a new org with the same verified
domain.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Remove the search fields by the org aggregate, instead of just setting
the removed state.
# Additional Changes
- Cleanup migration script that removed current stale fields.
