when i kill an agent, i expect the agent directory in the edatemp to vanish.
but in 7706 , it doesn't.
is this normal/expected? what are you guys experiencing?

Is TEMPERASE ON ?

oooohhhhh
never heard of such a thing, Waz.
where do i find it? some config file somewhere?

Waz is referring to a SETting..

SET TEMPERASE = ON|OFF

..that is set at the focexec level.

normally wouldn't be used (changed from the default), unless someone was troublshooting, or some other specific purpose.

I have seen some tscom directories not deleted, but that is usually due to a crashed agent.

Another time that the tscom directories are left around is when the process got handed off to JSCOM - usually only for Graphs but I've also seen it for latest version of Excel. Seems that the jscom process can be used to zip up the xlsx file.

oh isnt that interesting. thanks, Stu. i'm using alot of excel 12, i think it is, on this new server. hmmm.

Do you have this in your edaserve.cfg?

crashed_cleanup = on

Oops, you're talking about a directory.

oh man is that ever a T-shirt slogan!

I thought of that when I posted it!
