Remove orphaned artifacts

RPM packages, repodata files, and other relates files are kept on the disk even if they are no longer part of a repository; for example, after a repository is deleted and the files do not belong to another repository, or when an update is made available and a new set of repodata files is synchronized.

Procedure

To remove this obsolete content, one can run the following command:
[root@rhua ~]# rhua rhui-manager repo orphan_cleanup

Depending on the number of files, it can take up to several days for this task to complete. You can watch the progress in the rhui-manager text user interface, on the synchronization screen, under running tasks.
