[AutoQA] #427: Purge unneeded files in autotest results dir

#427: Purge unneeded files in autotest results dir -------------------------+------------------------- Reporter: kparal | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Finger Food Component: production | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: -------------------------+------------------------- Currently we have a script that periodically traverses through autotest results dir and compresses too large files. Also we use tmpwatch to remove too old results. But we still sometimes have problems with disk space and number of inodes on our servers. Autotest stores large number of files in each result directory. By cleaning those we don't want we can save resources, speed up execution of maintenance scripts and potential debugging (like grepping through results). Let's create a script that would traverse the results directory periodically and remove unneeded files. It would also compress large files, so it would call or merge the existing script. If we look into an example results dir: http://autoqa-stg.fedoraproject.org/results/100310-autotest/qa07.qa/ I believe we need to keep: {{{ /control /debug/*.DEBUG /host_keyvals /keyval /rpmguard/debug/*.DEBUG ("rpmguard" is a dynamic test name here) /rpmguard/keyval /rpmguard/results /rpmguard/status /status.log /sysinfo/installed_packages /sysinfo/uname }}} The rest of it can be deleted. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/autoqa/ticket/427> AutoQA <http://autoqa.fedorahosted.org> Automated QA project
