NAME¶

calendarserver_purge_events — Calendar Server event clean-up utility

SYNOPSIS¶

DESCRIPTION¶

calendarserver_purge_events is a tool for removing old events from the calendar server. By default, events older than 365 days are removed, but the user can specify the number of days in the past to use as a cut-off. Repeating events that have any occurrences after the cut-off day are not removed.

calendarserver_purge_events should be run as a user with the same privileges as the Calendar Server itself, as it needs to read and write data that belongs to the server.
