It is supposed to be automatic and it doesn't pay attention to ages. It
should delete anything in the pools with only one link - meaning that
all references in the pc directories had already been deleted.
If you cd to the cpool directory and 'find . -links 1' you shouldn't see
very many files.

It doesn't make sense for the cpool dir to be bigger than the pc
directory if you only have one server, since all files that exist in
cpool should have links in the pc dir(s) too. However, du has some
quirks in the way it adds up the space, trying not to count linked files
multiple times. Also, the space you reported for cpool and pc should
really be the same space since all the files should be hardlinks. And
in any case it shouldn't fill the 80 gigs you said you had. We must be
missing something. Is everything on the same filesytem?
