Results Administration


To open the Results Administration window:

Select Results Administration for manual query and deletion of result files. This function is provided to manually and selectively delete files from the Results Storage specifically for the purpose of deleting unneeded files to keep important files around longer. Results Administration is also available via REST API, see the Landslide Home Page  TAS Manager API for automating this task, e.g. delete all *.pcap files older than one week every day at midnight. 

Use the query parameters to define and refine the list of result filenames you are interested in deleting. Once the list of files are filtered to the exact files you want to delete, then click the Delete button to delete the files. Parameters are AND-ed together. E.G. if the minimum Size (MiB) > maximum Size (MiB) no matches will be found. The Regex and Suffix can be used together. After you click delete the table will be updated with total files deletes.

All deletions and errors related to Results Administration  are logged in the Real-Time Logs under ACTION = Results.

Enter the query parameters listed below and select Query to list the results. The Name of the file (s) along with the file sizes will be displayed on the right hand side of the pane. Click Delete to delete the files.
