Introduction
You use the SPD Server cleanup utility spdsclean to perform routine maintenance
functions on
• directories that you use to configure SPD Server storage
• directories that SPD Server uses for working storage
• various system-specific directories that are designated for temporary files.
The spdsclean utility uses a simple command-line interface so users can control the level
of cleanup performed and control the behavior of elements used in the utility.
CAUTION:
The spdsclean command line utility should be used only when SPD Server is not
running. Do not run spdsclean when the SPD Server host is running. The directory
cleanup utility does not ensure that files in the SPD Server cleanup area are not in use
by others. Some cleanup actions can violate SPD Server file integrity, permitting
concurrent access to file structures that were not designed to support concurrent access.
