Hello Don,

Thanks for the response, and sorry for little delay.

So here is the scenario..

I am working on Linux. We have couple of folders get updated constantly under /opt/modules. The folders under this are Prd, Cmp. So there are app related folders and files get created under Prd. For ex, under Prd, there are so many folders like App1-2015-08-31-R45, App1-2015-08-30-R44, App1-2015-08-31-R45. So for example, if I have to remove only App1-2015-08-31-R45 and App1-2015-08-31-R42 folders I have to mention that in a config file under /var/temp/appkeep file. Then the process should delete the following folders mentioned in appkeep file and send an email. Also if the folders under /opt/modules/Prd/ are 10 days old, there is another email comes and asking about if we need to delete them or not. Based on it, we will mention that in appkeep file again so that they will delete only those folders.


Please let me know if there are any questions.

Thanks.

dbus-cleanup-sockets(1) 				      General Commands Manual					   dbus-cleanup-sockets(1)

NAME
dbus-cleanup-sockets - clean up leftover sockets in a directory SYNOPSIS
dbus-cleanup-sockets [DIRECTORY] DESCRIPTION
The dbus-cleanup-sockets command cleans up unused D-Bus connection sockets. See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/ for more informa- tion about the big picture. If given no arguments, dbus-cleanup-sockets cleans up sockets in the standard default socket directory for the per-user-login-session mes- sage bus; this is usually /tmp. Optionally, you can pass a different directory on the command line. On Linux, this program is essentially useless, because D-Bus defaults to using "abstract sockets" that exist only in memory and don't have a corresponding file in /tmp. On most other flavors of UNIX, it's possible for the socket files to leak when programs using D-Bus exit abnormally or without closing their D-Bus connections. Thus, it might be interesting to run dbus-cleanup-sockets in a cron job to mop up any leaked sockets. Or you can just ignore the leaked sockets, they aren't really hurting anything, other than cluttering the output of "ls /tmp" AUTHOR
dbus-cleanup-sockets was adapted by Havoc Pennington from linc-cleanup-sockets written by Michael Meeks. BUGS
Please send bug reports to the D-Bus mailing list or bug tracker, see http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/ dbus-cleanup-sockets(1)
