Examples of a configured deletion policy
The following are two excerpts from FSE partition configuration files. They show examples of the configured
deletion policies for various platforms of the FSE client, and their explanations.
Linux specific
This deletion policy will have the following effect:
• All files in the directory /archive/permanent_files on the owning HSM file system will never be
considered for deletion.
• All files in the directories "/tmp/daily reports" and /tmp/temporary are to be considered for
deletion as soon as two days have passed since they were last changed.
Windows specific
This deletion policy will have the following effect:
• All files in the directories \Months\Current and "\Arch\June 2004" on the owning HSM file
system are to be considered for deletion as soon as one month has passed since they were last
changed.
• All files in the directories \Weeks\Current and "\Arch\Week 24" are to be considered for
deletion as soon as seven days have passed since they were last changed.
Default deletion policy
By default, deletion policy is not configured.
Part of the FSE partition configuration template that includes the disabled deletion policy parameters is
depicted in ”Template for FSE partitions - Deletion part” on page 306.
