Fir3net.com is pleased to release dbdel ver3.1. This is basically a wrapper for Check Points existing dbver tool, but allows you to remove 100`s of Database Revisions with one simple command string. Unlike dbver where you have to add each database revision id. This allows you to add the amount your want to remove and then does the rest for you.
