to reduce the amount of historical information retained. As for removing
records directly, I'd be careful - not sure if constraints are enforced, and you
might end up corrupting stuff.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

to delete rows fromcms_contents table?<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=Section1>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA>We use OpenCMS to store many large PDF
files and we have been exporting and importing content from one database to
another. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA>Problem is, the database size is growing
at an alarming rate and taking up a whole lot of space. From what we can
see, the “cms_contents” table appears to be the main
culprit.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA>Is there a way to get rid of old versions
of documents in the cms_contents table?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA>We tried using the cmsshell
command:<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA>But this did not appear to have any
effect. Should we go ahead and delete records directly in the database (sounds
scary).<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
