[Spacewalk-list] Disk usage by Spacewalk repo's is growing and never shrinking

[Nielsen, Dennis Appelon]

Hi Thomas
I ran the spacewalk-data-fsck -v -r all night, but nothing got delete, I'm still able to find old Fedora 16 packets when I look for them, and the total disk-space there is free is not changed after the run...

Any suggestions to clean-out old repo's would be appreciated...

Hi Michael
Thanks for you reply... I'm running the spacewalk-data-fsck -v -r in a screen as I type.

I also have a problem with " java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space"

Where can I increase the memory ?

spacewalk-data-fsck

It might help you to find and delete rpm packages on disk which
are no longer referenced from database.
