tp cleanbuffer with option

[Former Member]

Hi Everybody,

we use for the reorganisation of the transport directories the tp commands CHECK ALL and CLEAROLD ALL

Now we want also to use also the command cleanbuffer SID.

But we don't want that every sucessfull importet request will be deleted immediately from the buffer.

Is it possible to set a option like after 10 Days delete it from the buffer.

Thanks for your help.

regards,

Marcus

Hello Marcus,

there's no such option to delay the deletion of the request from the buffer, tp does not have such thing, check its options:

[7]tp cleanbuffer

This is tp version 376.01.14 (release 701, unicode enabled)
Usage of command CLEANBUFFER:

  tp CLEANBUFFER <SAPSID> [options ...]

  Removes completed transport requests from the buffer of system <SAPSID>.

  Options:
     pf=<TPPARAM>          specify a transport parameter file
     silent                redirect stdout to dev_tp in current directory
     -D"<entry>"           specify a parameter for tp
     -t<k>                 specify a trace level for tp
     tf=<filename>         specify the name of a trace file for tp
     shdwtadir=<tabname>   specify the name of a shadow TADIR

  Description of arguments:
     <TPPARAM>   (complete) path of a transport parameter file
     <entry>     a parameter description as in a tp parameter file
     <SAPSID>    R/3 system's name, (target or source whatever is appropriate)

I hope this information helps.

Best regards,

Tomas Black
