Hi experts,

I would like to create a scheduled script that will automatically remove files that are more than 2 months long.

Appreciate that any1 would give me any guidelines. Thank you.

use find with -atime +62 (files not accessed for more than 62 24-hour periods)

$ cd /app/oracle/admin
$ find . -atime +92 -exec rm {} \;


PS: This command is dangerous. Test it on a development environment first!!!
