  • 1.  Need to delete files for a new image

    Posted Mon July 08, 2024 07:02 PM

    Hi at all!

    I need to free up space for a new image file on a V5030E, but I don't know how. When I log in via SSH, I end up in an rbash where commands like cd or rm are restricted. What is the best way to delete the old image files now?

    Thanks

    Tobias

    what you mean "old image files"? if you want to clear dumps just use

    cleardumps -prefix /dumps 

    or check the cleardumps command syntax and what you can delete with that command on ibm docs

    If you talk about older update images, it is not usually needed, unless you've got a lot of failed upload attempts.

    However you can use "cleardumps -prefix /home/admin/upgrade <node>" to clean up old update packages that still might remain on the nodes.
