dual setup


 

Hi Richard -

Just noticed something I haven't beent tracking for awhile. The dual setup instructions in the IBC master user guide suggests setting up two different Jts folders (jtspaper, jtslive for example) for Ibdir to point to in the separate ibc config files that the bash start scripts (paperstart.sh, livestart.sh) read. Nothing seems to have been saved in these folders (or subfolders) for over a year. Fwiw the TWS_PATH in the gateway start scripts still point to ~/Jts and there seem to have two long named subfolders which are constantly updating. Everything is working absolutely beautifully so I perhaps neednt worry, except that I have a script which is supposed to deletes file every few days to clean up the jtslive and jtspaper folders to save on stoarage and of course this is not doing anything as no new files are being created so just checking if this is expected behaviour in the newer versions of IBC (I am using the latest release) and whether IbDir is still a required/useful setting in config files. Not the most exciting question but worth asking to help me manage my data storage. Thanks!


 

fwiw I am using this command in a script run regularly in cron for the cleanup of the log files only (which otherwise build up quickly):

find /home/mm/JtsPaper/nhjneolmeafgccmckokcogickkpcegmmgkigmlem -name "*.log" -type f -mtime +6 -delete;
?


 

...looking further into this, perhaps the entire endeavour to delete log files was misguided from the start as? perhaps these should not be created an saved there....although I am pretty sure I originally set this up because there were a massive number of log files at some point being saved into those folders, but I have completely forgotten why.
