[TiDB Usage Environment] Production Environment
[TiDB Version] v5.1.1
[Encountered Problem: Phenomenon and Impact]
There are a large number of rocksdb.info and raftdb.info files with timestamps in the tikv data directory, totaling nearly 300G.

Questions:

1. Can the rocksdb.info and raftdb.info files with timestamps be directly deleted using rm?
2. What specifically do these log records contain? Is there any documentation explaining this?

Sure, these are all rocksdb logs, you can delete them directly. The ones like rocksdb.info without a suffix are the logs currently in use, do not delete them.
