RB1000 & Usermanager

I really need this answered… I Keep getting these errors every time a client trys to pull data or start a new session. How do I clear all of the sessions and logs… It is eating up all of my HD and memory on my routerboard… I could go into user-manager and do it but that will take forever with 13+ thousand logs… and even MORE sessions… There must be a /tool user-manager sessions erase option??? right… I checked the manual couldnt find anything. But i may have missed it. Thanks for anybodys help. -Jordan

web browse to usermanager and select logs or sessions and in the upper right there is a drop down allowing you to change the number of items displayed. Select 1000 and then select all and remove. with 13K you still only have to repeat this 13 times.
I think from new terminal it would be
tool user-manager log remove 0,5 I could not seem to remove too many at one time with this method and found the web interface to work much better.

Thats really stupid… I have 174 THOUSAND sessions… So that means im going to clear my sessions 174 times every 3 months… and the logs 17 times every 3 months… This is a problem if there is no way to tell through /tool user-manager sessions erase 1-174000 Or if they allowed like 10 thousand per page… How does everybody else deal with this? Most likely a big hard drive, in a P4… I hope the new user-manager has a better way of erasing sessions/logs -Jordan

I agree. I was faced with deleting over 200,000 session log entries when the hdd was crammed to a standstill - quite ridiculous.

Calling up entries 1,000 to a page and then deleting them was taking nearly two minutes per page on a 400MHz RB532 so it would have taken a full working day just to delete them in this manner.

…even the script won’t work…
what helped was disabling the logs - but the sessions still remain.

If you delete the sessions in the webgui - does it release diskspace - i tried it, the sessions were gone but the disk was still full. ;o(
