Hi all,

Can any one tell me how to clear hash file without going for job ?
Any possibilities to clear from UNIX environment?

From the Administrator or TCL prompt: CLEAR.FILE HashedFileName works for an account based hashed file. Pathed file? Delete it from the O/S.

Use the Director. Make sure your Auto Purge setting are effective. Lastly, that same CLEAR.FILE command can be used, but you'll need to reestablish the Auto Purge settings afterwards.

As posted in your other thread the answer is no. You can use CLEAR.FILE on the job logs from the TCL prompt (which is NOT the operating system) with the caveats that Craig has mentioned regarding auto-purge settings.
