var/log/CPda/repository

Hello team!

 

We're using R81.20, but in CPda/reposiutory i see a lot of .tgz files for versions 80.30-81.10. Can i delete this files, or maybe i should left files for 81.10 and can safely delete 80.30 and 80.40 files

Usually you can delete whatever you can't uninstall. Newer major versions don't show any old hotfixes in CPUSE.

You should be able to delete all that are not installed in the current version - R80.30 to R81.10.

I suggest deleting them from CPUSE. Old packages should still appear. This way it will delete the package properly and not leave any metadata files etc.

If you want to play extra safe, you can leave the last version you upgraded from.

Kind regards, Amir Senn

Here is the rule I personally always follow and its been working well. I delete all takes, EXCEPT 2nd last one, so in your case, I would leave R81.10, just to be on the safe side. On a side note, do NOT ever delete anythingh from dir called last_take, as that will prevent you from installing later jumbo hotfixes, thats all.

Best,

Andy
