Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

How to clean up large admin directory

Oct 7, 2020 7:45PM in Database Administration (MOSC) 9 commentsAnswered ✓

Hello,

Oracle 12.2 with JUL2020 patch.

I have issue with disk space on root volume.

Following directories are huge and have files since 2018:

42G /u01/app/oracle/admin/orcl/adump

41G /u01/app/oracle/admin/orcl/dpdump

Any idea how can I clean them up ?
