What can I delete on storagenodes

From my experience - I performed this when I had mysterious issues with one of my nodes and this resolved the issue.
Following is for Windows but I guess the same apply for any OS, you will know where your folders are located. You can freely delete following folders and files, and when I say freely, it means the node will work just fine and you will not loose money, but the consequences may be the Dashboard not showing any data for a couple of hours, Filewalker full run, etc. Obviously it required stopping the storagenode first.

  1. c:\Storj\app\ - app folder where you have your storagenode.exe: all subfolders can be deleted, as well as files: revocations.db, storagenode.log, storagenode.old.v1.117.8.exe and all storagenode.old.*.exe, storagenode-updater.log, storagenode-updater.old.exe, trust-cache.json
  2. c:\Storj\dtb\ - the path is defined in config.yaml as storage2.database-dir: ... - delete all files and subfolders, not the folder itself.
  3. d:\Storj\data\ your data folder, the path defined in config.yaml as storage.path: ... - delete content (not the folder itself) of d:\Storj\data\filestatcache\, d:\Storj\data\hashstore\, d:\Storj\data\temp\ - there should be nothing in temp anyway.
  4. And if you have serious need and willing to the some minor risk, you can delete content of d:\Storj\data\trash. In worst case, if you are unlucky, this may lower your Audit Score by a percent or so but if your node is screwed up and have nothing to lose…

Or from the other side - you need to keep only:

  1. in app folder keep: config.yaml, storagenode.exe, storagenode-updater.exe
  2. in database folder: nothing needed
  3. in data folder: keep everything in d:\Storj\data\blobs\, file storage-dir-verification, and remove content of all other folders but keep the folders themselves.
