Data Manager log file deletion

Question

I belive this program (UJF_FILE_SERVICE_DLT_DM_FILES ) can be used to remove log files.  Couple of questions on this process
1) Can the DM log be deleted from the front end rather than running the program?  Any issues with deleting the log file from the BPC front end?
2) Is there a transaction code associated with this program?  If yes, do you know what is the transaction code?
3) Can this be scheduled so that it deletes everyting except the logs that are created in the last 2 or 4 months?

Answer 1

First the program you mentioned does not delete DM log files, it deletes only the DM data files.  There is no transaction code for that program and you can delete these files from the frontend with no problem.
If you want to delete DM log files, you can use this program delivered with this how-to guide.

THe only problem is that this program does not handle deleting the generated folders associated with log files.
