Hi List

I am just doing a bit of house keeping and in my holding disk partition

I have 

root@server:/backup/amanda-daily # du /backup | sort -nr | head
6417567 /backup
5400953 /backup/amanda-daily
636267  /backup/amanda-monthly/20060331
636267  /backup/amanda-monthly
297081  /backup/amanda-daily/20050923
296328  /backup/amanda-daily/20060111
294270  /backup/amanda-daily/20051027
293762  /backup/amanda-daily/20060102
293605  /backup/amanda-daily/20051227
293169  /backup/amanda-daily/20060215

Thus when I had a look in  /backup/amanda-daily The files are below The
first file is dated 13/07/2005 Can these files be deleted I assume that
because I haven't run amlflush at some point there still in the holding
disk.
