NAME

usapurge - purge backups created by usabackup

SYNOPSIS

C<usapurge [ --keep=E<lt>nE<gt> --quiet --verbose ] [I<host1 host2 ... hostn]>>

DESCRIPTION

usapurge takes a list of hostnames. If none are given, all hosts in the database are processed. usapueg purges backups created by usabackup (see the usabackup manpage for details of what files are purged). By default, 24 copies of backup versions are kept unless the --keep=<n> parameter is given. See below.

SWITCHES

usapurge takes three optional switches.

--keep=<n><n>
Keep <n> versions of backup files instead of the default 24.

--quiet
By default, usapurge announces itself on stdout when it starts. It also prints status messages as it works. If this switch is given, usapurge will produce no output other than fatal errors. Overrides the --verbose switch.

--verbose
If --quiet is not given, --verbose turns on verbose output of all commands issued by the framework.
