CUSTID: CustId for the organization to be purged.
DATES: Comma separated list of dates or date-range to process.
A date is specified as the number of days since the UNIX epoch, 1970-01-01.
A date-range is range specified by two dates inclusively separated by '-'.
Use the below Linux command to generate a epoch date (replace MM/DD/YYYY with actual date):
echo $(($(date --utc --date="MM/DD/YYYY" +%s)/86400))
TestDBPurger Example: TestDBPurger /data/eventdb /tmp/eventdb 1 2000 16230,16233-16235.
Purge data on 6/8/2014 and from 6/11/2014 to 6/13/2014 of organization 2000 and then restore the purged data back to eventdb.
Note the following before using the tool:
- Confirm the Organization ID before executing the tool.
- It is recommended to run this tool only for a single date at a time and not for the entire date range at once.
- Make sure enough space is available for Directory for keeping output data (/tmp/eventdb as per above example) which is actually backup of events and can be deleted later if not needed.
