Hi Greg,
I'm trying to figure out how to reduce the data stored on the galaxy server.
I came across this page and it looks like data will get deleted if the history element gets deleted but I can't tell if this happens automatically or if I need to cron these scripts: http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/Performance/Purge%20Histories%20a...
Is there anything else I can do to clean up unused data?
No that should be sufficient. You need to run python cleanup_datasets.py universe_wsgi.ini -d 60 with the different parameters ... -1 -2 -3 .... It will not happen automatically, i recommend you to set up a cron job that runs every week. You also may want to change the -d 60 to something less than 60.
Also is there a way a user can keep her history around as a record of what was done and be able to rerun it later, but still delete the actual data?
I don't think that is possible at the moment. Cheers, Bjoern
Thanks,
