TMSS10ExpireFiles will expire and delete all files from the TapeTrack Server that match the Customer-ID filter and fit within the specified date range.
TMSS10ExpireFiles [-C Customer Filter] [-R Expiry Date Range] [-S logon string] [-X Exclusion File] [-t Test Mode]
-C Customer-ID filter.-R Range of dates to delete files.-S The Logon string argument sets the Server Logon Information-X Files to be excluded from deletion.-t True to run in test mode
If an argument value starts with the value FI:, the value for that attribute will be read from the file name specified immediately after it. For example, if a file named ACME_volumes has the content ACME_*.*, specifying FI:/etc/ACME_volumes will have the same effect as -V ACME.*.*. Using FI: to refer to a file for an attribute value works for all attributes.
If the pattern being matched starts with *LIST: then rather than matching the literal value, each record in the file specified as *LIST:filename will be tested. If one matches the match will succeed.
The TapeTrack Software is commercially supported by a full time help desk staff.
If you are experiencing problems or want some advice on how to configure or use the product please see the Accessing Technical Support page.
