remove old recordings

Postby gmcust3 » Tue Apr 06, 2010 5:45 pm

When I installed my server, it WAS:

### remove old recordings more than 7 days old
#24 0 * * * /usr/bin/find /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE -maxdepth 2 -type f -mtime +7 -print | xargs rm -f

Today, after 3 months when My HDD is 80% filled , I uncommented it.

Now, when i reboot, I don't see any decrease in space.

24 0 * * * /usr/bin/find /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE -maxdepth 2 -type f -mtime +7 -print | xargs rm -f

"24 0" means it will run at Exactly when its 24 hr on the server time ??

What if that time calling is going on ??

To delete, 350 GB, It will take 3-4 hrs ?

System will go down ?

Preferable to run it when noone logged in ?

depnding on your hard drive speed try this command :

rm -rf /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ORIG
rm -rf /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/mp3

then recreate those directories again:

mkdir -p /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ORIG
mkdir -p /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/mp3

usually its the ORIG folder that fills the hard drive since it stores uncompressed WAV files which are like 10 mb upwards

Here is a cron job that I use to remove anything older than 20 days. Works a little better IMO.

### remove recording older than 20 days
0 3 * * * find /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE -mtime +20 -exec rm {} \;

Have you found it safe to delete the contents of the orig folder? My setup has recordings in this folder as well as the GSM folder. So far I have found that the recordings are the same between these two folders. Can't figure out, though, why there are so many copies of the call recordings. ORIG folder has a copy with the word all at the end, a second with the word in at the end (equal in size to the first one), and a third with the word out at the end which is 44 bytes in size. The GSM just has one file per call with the proper file name.

Deletes the original, uncompressed, copies of the files nightly.

Deletes the FTP folder copy of any files that have already been pushed to the FTP recording archive server nightly, as they are now redundant (if they have not been pushed, it does not delete them). Deletes the MP3 folder (live copy) of all recordings after 65 days.
Code: Select all
26 1 * * * /usr/bin/find /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/MP3 -maxdepth 2 -type f -mtime +65 -print | xargs rm -f
25 1 * * * /usr/bin/find /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/FTP -maxdepth 2 -type f -mtime +1 -print | xargs rm -f
24 1 * * * /usr/bin/find /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ORIG -maxdepth 2 -type f -mtime +1 -print | xargs rm -f
