[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Over 20GB in /openils/var/web/reporter is this normal/safe to clean up?

[Ben Shum]

Hi Jesse,

Those folders contain the generated report contents from the reporter
in Evergreen.  Most email notifications and reports in the client will
point back to those folders / files.

In the past, we'd implemented a process to delete old reports from our server.

This is a link to the Evergreen Magic spells page on the Evergreen wiki.

You can adapt the scheduled report purging process outlined there to
fit your needs.
