Nedbank - IT Information Security Department (ISD) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Francois, We had something similar a few months back - I suspect a bug somewhere. Basically files weren't getting removed from the OST. Eventually, we mounted as ext, and removed them manually, I think. A reboot of the file system meant that rm operations then proceeded correctly after that. Cheers, Alastair. On Mon, 17 Oct 2022, Cloete, F.
