Hi,
As I'm installing a lot of custom packages, the upgrades packages folder on my system is becoming quite large. I was wondering if there is some kind of automatic cleanup of this folder?
This Dojo article mentions "Checking the upgrade folder - 5 minutes". Is this something that can be cleaned automatic by enabling something or should a custom scheduled task be created in combination with an automation script? Or is there some automatic cleanup being executed when the folder reaches a certain number of folders to remove the oldest ones?
It mentions "You can remove all subfolders related to upgrades that have been completed already". If I would write an automation script, how would I know that the upgrade has been completed? Or does it only contain folders of upgrades that are completed?
Hi Laurens,
Currently, it is not possible (yet) to configure in DataMiner the cleanup to be done automatically. When you initiate an upgrade/upload of an upgrade package it will be placed in the packages folder. So it can be that the upgrade is not yet completely executed for one of the packages (the progress.log file will tell you). You could schedule an automation script to clean up that folder every day for example (DataMiner/Automation will not run during the upgrade), but it could be that you clean some packages that were uploaded only.
