Problem Note 58413: The SPDSCLEAN utility might fail to delete SAS® Scalable Performance Data Server log files
 |  |  |  |  |
The SPDSCLEAN utility might fail to delete old SAS SPD Server log files if the CTIME (creation time) field is changing every day.
Before deleting log files, the SAS SPD Server checks the files' modification time as indicated by the CTIME field returned by the stat command. Consequently, the SPDSCLEAN utility might not delete the logs if the CTIME field indicates a recent update.
This problem has been corrected so that the SPDSCLEAN utility uses the MTIME (modification time) field returned by the stat command instead of CTIME.
