Hi,
As I was observing the space issus on my db server. I found that there is lots of Trm and Trc file which is being created very much freequently. Due to this its consuming lots of space even the size of each files is not more than 1Mb.
For cleaning I am deleting all the trm and trc files mannully using DEL command Os level.
I also googled for this but didn't get more help.
So is there any solution for this. Can some one tell me how can i schedule the purging of trm and trc files.
Thanks
Pradeep S

This is the AT command:
M:\>at /?
The AT command schedules commands and programs to run on a computer at
a specified time and date. The Schedule service must be running to use
the AT command.
AT [\\computername] [ [id] [/DELETE] | /DELETE [/YES]]
AT [\\computername] time [/INTERACTIVE]
[ /EVERY:date[,...] | /NEXT:date[,...]] "command"
\\computername Specifies a remote computer. Commands are scheduled on the
local computer if this parameter is omitted.
...
However, you'd probably rather use your Windows' Task Scheduler (Accessories - System Tools). Write a simple batch program that will delete files you don't need (you'd use the DEL command):M:\>del /?
Deletes one or more files.
DEL [/P] [/F] [/S] [/Q] [/A[[:]attributes]] names
ERASE [/P] [/F] [/S] [/Q] [/A[[:]attributes]] names
names Specifies a list of one or more files ... It is a simple command, but - if you never used it - test it on unimportant files because you probably don't wont to delete the other files too. Batch file could look like this:There are many examples available online, just search for them.
Schedule that batch file to run daily (or as frequently as you wish).
