calendarserver_purge_events
CALENDARSERVER_PURGE_EVENTS(8) BSD System Manager's Manual CALENDARSERVER_PURGE_EVENTS(8)
NAME
calendarserver_purge_events -- Darwin Calendar Server event clean-up utility
SYNOPSIS
calendarserver_purge_events [--config file] [--days number] [--dry-run] [--verbose] [--help]
DESCRIPTION
calendarserver_purge_events is a tool for removing old events from the calendar server. By default, events older than 365 days are removed,
but the user can specify the number of days in the past to use as a cut-off. Repeating events that have any occurrences after the cut-off
day are not removed.
calendarserver_purge_events should be run as a user with the same priviledges as the Calendar Server itself, as it needs to read and write
data that belongs to the server.
OPTIONS
-h, --help
Display usage information
-f, --config FILE
Use the Calendar Server configuration specified in the given file. Defaults to /etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist.
-d, --days NUMBER
Specify how many days in the past to retain. Defaults to 365 days.
-n, --dry-run
Calculate and display how many events would be removed, but don't actually remove them.
-v, --verbose
Print progress information.
FILES
/etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist
The Calendar Server configuration file.
