DELETE DNSDOMAIN The DELETE DNSDOMAIN command purges DNS domains and their definitions
from the DNS database.
DELETE { [ DNSDOMAIN ] domain } [ at-part ] [ ! ]
{ DNSDOMAIN * }
where at-part is:
AT { \ system | name manager }
DNSDOMAIN
may be omitted if domain is unique in the command name manager’s database.
domain
is the name of a domain to be deleted.
DNSDOMAIN *
means all domains in the command name manager’s database are to be included
for deletion.
{ \ system | name manager }
is a system or name manager where the command is to be executed. If omitted,
the current name manager is assumed.
!
If present, DNSCOM does not prompt for confirmation before deleting each name.
If omitted, DNSCOM prompts for confirmation. At each prompt, you have the
following options: retain the domain, delete the domain, delete all remaining
domains specified by the delete expression, or abort the command.
Examples
DELETE MIDWEST AT \TESTSYS !
DELETE DNSDOMAIN NETWORK_CONTROL
Consideration
If you attempt to delete a name that has the specified domain as the value of its
DOMAIN attribute, DNSCOM issues a warning message, and the name is not deleted.
