Maintaining the ReadiVoice System
Proprietary & Confidential 107
Table 4-3 gives examples of the command with various options and values and
describes the result of running the command.
Running a One-Time Purge of CDRs
To manually purge CDRs from the command line:
1 Open a Telnet session to the CACS as user cnow and switch user to root
(or log into the CACS as root and use an XTerm window).
2 Change to the
/rahome/cdr
directory.
3 Type the
purgeCDR
command with the options you want and press ENTER.
To see which CDRs will be purged, but not purge them, use the
-v
(view)
option.
4 At the prompt to continue, type
y
and press ENTER. Then wait for the
process to complete.
If you’re purging records (not using the
-v
option), the script removes the
out-of-date records from the database, writes them to a text file named
YYYYMMDDhhmmsscdr.log
(where
YYYYMMDDhhmmss
is the run date of the
purge) and then archives the file as
YYYYMMDDhhmmsscdr.log.gz
.
5 When the script has finished, verify that the records were deleted and
that the backup file was created.
The backup file is in
/rahome/cdr/archives
.
