Open System Services Shell and Utilities Reference Manual (G06.27+, H06.04+)

User Commands (p - r) rm(1)

5. To delete all OSS ﬁles on the local node, enter:

export UTILSGE=NOG:NOE

rm -r /

6. To delete all OSS ﬁles on the remote node node1,enter:

rm -r -W NOG /E/node1

NOTES

Because /G and /E both appear in your local root directory, you should be very careful when

using OSS shell commands on or from the root directory. OSS shell commands that perform

recursive actions make no distinction between Guardian and OSS ﬁles or between local and

remote ﬁles. You can use the -W NOG and -W NOE ﬂags or the UTILSGE environment vari-

able to exclude objects in the Guardian ﬁle system or objects accessible through the Expand pro-

duct.

RELATED INFORMATION

STANDARDS CONFORMANCE

The -W NOG and -W NOE ﬂags and the UTILSGE environment variable are HP extensions to

the XPG4 Version 2 speciﬁcation.
