We have Archive Manager 1.00 running on our content delivery servers, which are JBoss/Oracle/Linux. We've just been sent a "high disk space utilisation" incident, which seems to implicate Archive Manager.

A number of files have been stored in .../cdeServer1/bin/tmp/ArchiveManager - 20GB worth over >675,000 files, apparently (!), e.g.

-rw-rw-r-- 1 jboss jboss    19558 May 16  2016 arc4604600835196932209
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jboss jboss    18199 May 16  2016 arc5077129957537477568
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jboss jboss    19333 May 16  2016 arc4841114156653131755

The content of the files appears to be deployed, rendered content - HTML and Javascript. Most of the files are dated 2016, so my gut is they could be removed, but the number and size of them is making me think twice!

I cannot see any mention of this location in the configuration XML files - the closest is in web.xml and specifies /tmp/ (not cdeServer1/bin/tmp/) as the upload directory for com.tridion.transport.HTTPSReceiverServlet.

Two simple questions:

  1. Can these files be safely deleted?
  2. Is there any reason they have not been cleared up automatically?

It seems the files can be safely deleted.

We took the sensible approach and moved the directory to a different location with no obvious ill effects. The moved directory has now been deleted and the application is still working normally.
