Re: PTF Save Files - when to delete...

I send them to other machines with SAVRSTOBJ, just like any other save file.

We delete them on the remote machines every 8 weeks, just prior to getting new 
ones.

We leave them on the development machine, the one with the ECS line.  The 
machine 
is for programmers and the like only.  It has 109gb.

How do you send them to other machines ? Glad I don't have to worry about that 
:-)

So you're saying that it IS OK to delete them once they are on, correct  ?

I thought it probably would be but it's been awhile (tended to get busy where I 
was and
with 172gb of storage, this wasn't a real problem <G>)
