to find out - become root on the appliance as was also shown to remove the logwatch files, then run the command, as root updatedb. Then use the locate command followed by one of the long-backup-filenames to find their 'native-linux-location' on the appliance , then you also have the option to transfer/remove them from the appliance which simpler means such as ftp and or scp. rm command can then be used to remove them from the particular directory.
1st. become root..... no explanation how to.
2nd remove logwatch files, where, how cli commands?
3rd run updatedb from root?
4th locate command, we don't have that until root is achieved.
All of this is predicated on becoming root, as you say. Please guide us to getting root, before the other commands can be accomplished.
I haven't figured out how to be root. Be specific, not everyone has your experiences in linux OS. Do you stop NCS, is there a sudo command, we don't know.
Not all of us are SME experts in linux, PI, or Oracle, we would love exact steps in how to fix our stuff. Be overly specific when you can, it will document "how to" for everyone else and people won't bug you nearly as much.
If you spend some time being very detailed in your instructions, it will echo throughout time, as no one will ask these dumb questions again. I only have 35 years in this business and am not going to say "build a MARIADB" without specific instructions, I wasted 3 weeks figuring out that, "Simple step".
What is a simple task to you, is a huge learning curve for most of us. Anyone with less experience than you, in your field, based on your explanation, cannot pull this off.
