Hi all,
Running SerNet Samba 4.0.9 on CentOS 6.4 serving as an AD DC and
fileshare for XP clients.
Added recycler per the example at
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Frequently_Asked_Questions to my
smb.conf. Works great.
My concern is that the recycle dir will eventually grow large.
vfs_recycle's docs mention a parameter for limiting individual file
sizes, but what's a best practice to prevent the whole recycle folder
from growing too large? Cronjob to delete old files when the total is
past a certain size? Anyone have a script handy? (I'm hoping I'm not
the only one with this problem :) Seems like it would be a common
concern...)
Thanks,
Kev
I use a script to cleanup the deleted files and run it daily with cron.
cat /usr/bin/cleanupold
#!/bin/bash
find /var/share/.recycle/* -mtime +30 -exec rm {} \;
In /var/spool/cron/root
@daily /usr/bin/cleanupold > /dev/null 2>&1 #Cleanup old audio files

Thanks John, but I meant more so is there a way to have it look at the
total size of the recycle dir too? I.e. only delete stale files when it
needs to to stay within a limit, and also even delete not-so-stale files
if it needs to because there have been too many GB deleted lately to
keep 30 days worth (or whatever) around?
Thanks again,
Kev
