DELETE FILE
Syntax
delete file=[cflash:] filename
Parameter
file Specifies the name of the file to be deleted. A name
with spaces must be enclosed in double quotes.
Otherwise, the quotes are optional. If the file is stored
on a compact memory flash card, precede the name
with “cflash:”.
Description
This command deletes a file from the file system or from a compact flash
memory card.
Note the following before using this command:
 Deleting the configuration file that is acting as the active boot
configuration file causes the switch to use its default settings the next
time you reboot or power cycle the switch, unless you select another
active boot configuration file. For instructions on how to change the
active boot configuration file, refer to see “SET CONFIG” on page 219.
 To delete a PKI certificate, you must first remove the certificate from
the certificate database using “DELETE PKI CERTIFICATE” on
page 629.
 This command does not accept a directory path. To delete a file on a
compact flash card, you must first change to the directory where the
file is stored. For instructions, refer to “SET CFLASH DIR” on
page 218.
 Files with a “.ukf” extension cannot be deleted with this command.
These files are encryption key pairs. To delete an encryption key pair
from the switch, refer to “DESTROY ENCO KEY” on page 618.
To list the files in the file system, refer to “SHOW FILE” on page 223.
Examples
The following command deletes the certificate enrollment request
SW55a.csr:
delete file=SW55a.csr
