Question regarding purgelogs and symbolic link

edited Sep 19, 2020 5:04AM in Oracle Database Appliance (ODA) (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

I find purgelogs utility to be very robust and does the cleanup job very well on ODA.  However, cleanup of rdbms audit files is not very flexible as location is hard coded to look under $OH/rdbms/audit and $OBase/admin/DB/adump folders.  Due to space constraints in /u01 filesystem, I relocated the audit file destination to a different local filesystem.  I then created a symbolic link from $OBase/admin/DB/adump to point to audit_file_dest as a workaround to the purgelogs requirement.  Running the command below did not purge audit files, has anyone experience similar issue?  Is there anything that I am missing?  Thanks in advance!

Howdy, Stranger!
