Good afternoon,

I am using Trend's A/V for SBS and would like to develop a proceedure
to delete any old A/V definition files - any suggestions?

Ummm ... you mean more than simply going in and deleting the older files?
Are they causing any problems by being there?

Keep in mind that things may change in October when Trend switches things
around.

Kevin,

Thanks for your reply.

Ummmm...yes. I wanted to make sure that I have the correct files... I have
not looked at where they are and what they are named yet. They are no
trouble it that I have an existing routine (part of moth end) that
sytematically moves selected files and logs from active to archive and then
to delete and I would like to include these in it.

Maureen

P.S. This is completely separate from my nightly complete backups.

All the A/V definition files for Trend are named lpt$vpn.XXX where XXX is a
number. The definition files are currently less than 7mb in size, each. I
would suggest deleting all except perhaps the two most recent ones. That's
just "in case" a def'n file is bad, you would still have the prior one
available.

No need to archive or keep the old ones - just delete them!
