What version of the repository are you using? Batch purges are supported in Fedora 3.5:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/FCREPO-756 Command: fedora-purge Summary: Purges an object from the Fedora repository. Syntax: fedora-purge host:port user password pid|fileURI protocol log [context] Where: host is the target repository hostname. port is the target repository port number. user is the id of the target repository user. password is the password of the target repository user. pid|fileURI is the id of the object to purge from the target repository OR the file URL for a file containing pids to purge, one pid per line protocol is the protocol to communicate with repository (http or https) log is a log message. context (optional) is a different web application server context of Fedora (default is fedora) Examples: fedora-purge myrepo.com:8443 jane janepw demo:5 https "my message" Purges the object whose pid is demo:5 from the target repository at myrepo.com:8443 using the secure https protocol (SSL) fedora-purge myrepo.com:8443 jane janepw file:///some/dir/purge-pids.txt http "my message" Purges the objects whose pids are listed in the file /some/dir/purge-pids.txt from the target repository at myrepo.com:8443 using the non-secure http protocol I see that the fedora-purge documentation needs to be updated, however. I'll do that. -- Scott On 11/04/2011 02:16 PM, James, Eric wrote: > Thanks Michael.
