EV Clearing up temporary files
Several people ask about how Enterprise Vault clears up temporary files, and why it might or might not be working on their system.Here is how to trace it and see what it is doing : Create a Dtrace Filter as follows : Dtrace Set adminservice v Filter Clear includes Include CCleanUptempFiles Exit Log to a file, and then MON Once an hour you will get the following : 2465 10:00:44.968 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::ThreadRoutine - GetTempPath 2466 10:00:45.390 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::ThreadRoutine - TempPath = C:\DOCUME~1\vsa\LOCALS~1\Temp\ 2467 10:00:46.437 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::ThreadRoutine - GetRegistrySettings 2468 10:00:46.671 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::GetRegistrySettings - Try toopen [SOFTWARE\KVS\Enterprise Vault\AdminService] 2469 10:00:46.671 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::GetRegistrySettings - Read [DelFilesOlderThanHours] 2470 10:00:46.671 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::GetRegistrySettings - DelFilesOlderThanHours = [24] 2471 10:00:46.671 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::GetRegistrySettings - Read [DelFileTypes] 2472 10:00:46.671 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::GetRegistrySettings - DelFileTypes = [] 2473 10:00:46.671 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::GetRegistrySettings - CloseKey 2474 10:00:47.218 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::ThreadRoutine CleanupFiles loop 2475 10:00:47.843 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::CleanupFiles - Find Files (C:\DOCUME~1\vsa\LOCALS~1\Temp\EV$*.*) 2476 10:00:47.843 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::CleanupFiles - Skipped – Not due for deletion (ev$1.1) 2477 10:00:47.843 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::CleanupFiles - Exit 2478 10:00:49.031 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::CleanupFiles - Find Files (C:\DOCUME~1\vsa\LOCALS~1\Temp\~DF*.TMP) 2479 10:00:49.031 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::CleanupFiles - Exit 2480 10:00:52.749 [5104] (AdminService) <2308> EV:M CCleanUpTempFiles::ThreadRoutine - wait for 1 hour or until service exits. There are a couple of things to note : • It runs once per hour • It will remove non-read-only files which aren’t in use • By default it will use the file pattern : $*.* and ~DF*.TMP. • It won’t delete files newer than 24 hours old Control of the last two options is through the registry keys : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\KVS\Enterprise Vault\AdminService\ DelFileTypes = “~DF*.tmp;EV$*.*;*.tmp” DelFilesOlderThanHours These are read dynamically (at the next run interval)
