How to recursively find and delete files from Server after certain time?
Introduction
You don’t have to write a comprehensive script to handle it but it can be done with just single command:
find /path/to/folder -type f -name "" -mtime + -exec {} \;
For example, we need to remove voicemail messages after 30 days from Asterisk or FreeSwitch Server.
Asterisk
find /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail -type f -name "msg*" -mtime +30 -exec ls -lhtr {} \;
Removing all voicemail messages that exists in server for more than 30 days:
find /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail -type f -name "msg*" -mtime +30 -exec rm {} \;
FreeSwitch
Listing all voicemail messages that exists in server for more than 30 days:
find /usr/local/freeswitch/storage/voicemail -type f -name "msg_*" -mtime +30 -exec ls -lhtr {} \;
Removing all voicemail messages that exists in server for more than 30 days:
find /usr/local/freeswitch/storage/voicemail -type f -name "msg_*" -mtime +30 -exec rm {} \;
It can be added in crontab to execute above command after every 24 hours:
