Output files from IWR

[JeannetteC]

Hi,

I've just been mooching around the server trying to create some disk space and wondering where my 70 GB of hard drive has gone.
It never occurred to me to check the output folder from the IWR server report set location. But that's where it all is!

Why does it save all of this stuff - there is masses of it. Is there a preferred way to tidy this up and does just deleting these have any implications? Should I be keeping this tidy or is there something not working correctly to clean this up???

Many thanks for your help.

OK - I found the cleanup wasn't scheduled - I thought it was, but that ought to do the trick.

Depending on your version of IWR, cleanup does not always work. Also, we've run into instances where some files don't get cleaned up. Keeping checking your directories periodically just to be sure.

Pain is stress leaving the body.

Thanks DoubleD, I think that I have a version that doesn't clean up properly! I have removed a lot of those files now and will keep an eye on them.

We actually ended up writing a script to clean up old files in those directories, then scheduled the script. Good luck to you!

I am what I am based on the decisions I have made.
