Summary :
This SAP Note provides guidance on orderly deletion of old files in the SAP transport directory using the tp function 'clearold'. The directive applies to data, log, and cofiles subdirectories, starting from Release 3.0 for all operating systems and from Release 3.1H for OS/400. Administrators must ascertain if a file is indispensable for future transports or if it has surpassed its set expiry date, as per defined parameters in the 'TPPARAM' file within the bin subdirectory. Settings such as datalifetime, loglifetime, and cofilelifetime specify the minimum lifetime of files. Execution involves checking and then clearing files that are no longer necessary, impacted by settings in the 'TPPARAM'.
