Hi Ashish, *I'm not really sure*, but I can tell you what I think and I would do:
*1. How are these files created? *When a job is executed. Those XML files relate generated files in a build with that build. *2. If I delete these, will these be auto-generated the next time the fingerprint job runs?* I suppose so. *3. Do I need to stop Jenkins before deleting these or can I delete them on the fly?* I'd recommend you stop Jenkins and backup directory before. *4. If I can delete them on the fly, is a Jenkins restart required?* I hope be useful.
