With all the recent releases for VCF i noticed that my file system was getting full and once the updates are complete i wanted to reclaim all that used space.

The first step was to identify the Bundle ID. We can find this by going to the bundle itself and checking out the details by clicking on View Details

Viewing the Download History for VMware Software Update 5.1.1.0.

For example this specific Bundle ID is 86da0038-b68d-4368-8be1-576568a68c54

This screenshot shows a VMware Software Update bundle details page, including version, vendor, and bundle ID.

At this point i had to log in to the sddc manager and issue the following command:

/opt/vmware/vcf/lcm/lcm-app/bin/bundle_cleanup.py 86da0038-b68d-4368-8be1-576568a68c54

Log shows bundle cleanup for ID 86da0038-b68d-4368-8be1-576568a68c54 completed.

We can also specify multiple bundle IDs:

/opt/vmware/vcf/lcm/lcm-app/bin/bundle_cleanup.py 96368be7-554c-40d1-81ef-3ad0b47c16f0 7d5af5d8-0f01-4fc5-b22b-c805f5cd00fb cf4ab52f-b999-4f6a-8c29-2db829110925

Log shows successful bundle cleanup for VCF IDs.

I hope this helps
