A temporary file is a temporary data file generated by the BIRT Analytics application. The Remove temporary information option allows the administrator to remove all temporary files and records used by the application to return disk and memory resources to the system. Use this option to refresh the cache after performing analytical calculations that contain obsolete data.
The Remove temporary information option displays the following warning:
WARNING: This process will remove all temporary files and records used by the application. This action may affect any users that are working in BIRT Analytics right now.
Choose Remove temporary information to remove all temporary files and records used by the application, as shown in Figure 1‑26. The message, Process has finished successfully, appears when the process is complete.
