When we get 5.0 push (any day now ?), we are thinking
we may PURGE all files in TELESUP and a few other
groups/accounts, to get a "clean" load of just the current
stuff.  There seems to be quite a few places where old
artifacts just get left lying around as new revisions of
the OS come out.....  And we've noticed that sometimes
this results in the same filename ending up in two
separate groups (old and new FSCHECK, for example).
 
Would it make sense to ask HP to come out with a
system-wide cookbook of what HP-provided groups
and accounts could/should have all files PURGEd
before installing a new release of MPE;  at least for
major "platform" releases like 5.0 push ??
