Free up space on storage

0

Hello, I'm using AWS with Perforce to storage some projects. To free up some space I deleted one stream with a project in it (180GB) using the perforce oblitarate command.

After that the available space on the AWS volume is still 50GB, Is there a some kind of temporary trash to empty? I don't know where to check this informations.

Thanks for the help, Alessio

Hello Alessio,

Thank you for the question.

The Perforce obliterate command is the correct action to clear up disk space.

I recommend making sure you are using the command correctly.

“p4 obliterate filename” does not actually destroy the file and its metadata. It just shows you what will happen. “p4 obliterate -y filename” is the correct command to permanently delete the file and its metadata.

I also recommend using Elastic Block Store (EBS) for block storage attached to an EC2 allows you to change volume size (disk size) and volume type (disk type) dynamically.

I hope this solves your issue. I have attached a documentation with some general good practices with Perforce.
