1. Create a small workflow to find nodes under "/etc/packages" where jcr:created has value older than 90 days (say).

This will return you nodes of paths like:

/etc/packages/Group_Name and /etc/packages/Group_Name/.snapshot

2. Delete these nodes.

3. Your TarPM and datastorage cleanup will take care of retrieving the used space.

ALL_PATHS=`curl -s -u $ADMIN_CRED "$ADMIN/bin/querybuilder.json?path=$PACKAGE_LOCATION&type=nt:file&p.limit=-1&daterange.property=jcr:created&daterange.upper

Bound=2013-12-31&daterange.upperOperation=`

#echo "$ALL_PATHS"

for SINGLE_PATH in $ALL_PATHS

do

echo "$SINGLE_PATH"

i thought we can purge the old packages using the script provided by Yogesh.

we have hundreds of packages that we need to purge.

So are you saying that there is no way to purge these files?

you cannot purge packages as such .. same name packages can be versioned or over-written when installed by

using install arguments ..
