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 subsystem-object name, delete the subsystem-object
name, delete all remaining subsystem-object names specified by the delete
expression, or abort the command.
Examples
DELETE TERM1 !
DELETE * UNDER TEST_SYSTEM AT \TESTSYS
DELETE SERVER * UNDER $RDS
DELETE SSOBJECT NEWYORK
Considerations
Deleting a subsystem object automatically deletes any aliases for the object.
If you attempt to delete a subsystem object that is a component of a composite
object, DNSCOM issues an error message, and the object is not deleted.
