DELETENODE

Deletes an entry from the network directory.

Syntax

DELETENODE [nodename] [;LOCAL]

[;GLOBAL]

Parameters

nodename The name of a node to delete from the directory in the

format:

nodename.domain.organization

Each of the three names may be from one to sixteen

characters long, must begin with a letter, and may

contain letters, digits, underscores, or dashes.

If omitted, then all entries of the selected class in the

directory will be deleted.

LOCAL Designates that only local entries in the directory are to

be deleted.

GLOBAL Designates that only global entries in the directory are

to be deleted. This is the default class if neither

keyword is speciﬁed.

Description

DELETENODE deletes a single entry or all entries from the currently

opened network directory. If you issue this command from a session,

and do not specify nodename, then you are prompted with a delete

conﬁrmation message and a yes/no response is solicited to verify that

you really want to delete all entries from the directory.

Example

To delete a single node entry:

NMMGR> DELETENODE NODE2.XLNET.ACCTG ;LOCAL

To delete all global entries from a directory:

NMMGR> [RETURN]
