Re: [foxboro] How to remove big collection of files

-
These files are located in the /opt/foxind/peer2peer/alm2unix/sched/RUN1

I used the command " nice ls & " to list them, it took more than 30
minutes just to list them. 
-
Yes the amdisp is running

Hmmm.

You really should not be accumulating files. What directory has them and
can
you give me the name of a few?

Is the program almdisp (Alarm Dispatch) running?


alm2unix comes as part of FoxPage and also RemotePlus do you have either
of
these?

        Hi All,
        I am trying to remove a directory of size 19997184, when I do
so,
the
        "rm" commands uses almost 80% of the CPU time which makes the
system
        very very slow which affect the whole network. This directory
hosts
        files from a program called alm2unix which collects data and
passes
it
        to a remote site.
         
        Is there any command or way to delete all those files
accumulated in
the
        directory without affecting the system performance?
         
        Your help is always appreciated.
         
         
        Best Regards,
