Ankita,

My reply to your other post (http://hpccsystems.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=478&sid=91a5b96a6eea55fbf263bf4f30a3b436) addresses how to manually delete files.

There is also a Standard Library function, STD.File.DeleteLogicalFile(), that allows you to delete files during a job.

the delete and despray options are not freeing up the space in the Thor cluster.

Despray is not meant to delete the source file, ever -- it is just a mechanism to get data out of the HPCC environment. But the Delete I described in my post referenced above does actually delete all the file parts from all the nodes, so my question is: how are you attempting to delete, and how are you determining that the space has not been freed up?

HTH,

Richard
