Hello

is there a way to cleanup hostdata and histlogs automaticly? Lets say
delete all files older than half a year or so. May I do that via OS or
is there a special Hobbit-way to do it.

Thanks

Take a look at the trimhistory command.
Ok, trimhistory cleans up the histlogs, but not the hostdata. I did the following:

./trimhistory --cutoff=`expr \`date +%s\` - 31536000` --drop --droplogs

Can I simply delete the old hostdata files?

Thank you
Thorsten Erdmann

I suggest checking the list archive, but based on how much historical information you require I'm inclined to say yes.
