After an extended period of use, it may become necessary to remove unwanted user data from the Primo directory structure.

To remove unwanted data:

Verify that there are no pipes running.
Enter the be_pipes alias to move to the pipes directory. For example:

be_pipes
Enter the pwd command to display the PATH of the current directory:

/exlibris/primo/p1_1/ng/primo/home/profile/publish/publish/production/pipes
Enter the ls command to display the contents of the directory. For example:

ls

Blue_Bay_Aleph/Primo_Demo_Marc_Pipe/

Blue_Bay_Aleph_No_Harvest/Primo_Demo_Metalib_Pipe/

Blue_Bay_Digitol/Primo_Demo_Metalib_Update_DS/
Enter the following commands to move to a pipe directory:

cd <pipe name>/<source code>
Enter the ls command to display the contents of the directory. For example:

ls

2008-11-20@19.00.56/ 2008-11-20@19.17.18/ 2008-11-20@19.25.04/

2008-11-20@19.14.32/ 2008-11-20@19.17.28/ 2008-11-20@19.37.32/
Enter the following command to remove all directories and subdirectories from the current directory:

rm -r *
Enter the <fe|be|se>_log alias to move to the logs directory. For example:
