DELETELF

NAME

deletelf - remove an existing RMSfile

SYNOPSIS

deletelf datafile

DESCRIPTION

Deletelf removes the contents, data dictionary, and the database catalog entry for an RMSfile that is no longer needed. Once an RMSfile has been removed with deletelf it is no longer accessible to any program.

SEE ALSO

lfadmin (C-1)

NOTES

If the datafile argument has the form dbname~lfile or ~lfile, then deletelf deletes the RMSfile named by using the database dbname and logical file name lfile. If the datafile argument has the form filename (i.e. it has neither a ~ nor \ in the name), then it is taken as a logical file name, filename, using the default database name.
