Open System Services Shell and Utilities Reference Manual (G06.29+, H06.08+, J06.03+)

rm(1) OSS Shell and Utilities Reference Manual
to delete an SQL object that is in the OSS file system, the rm command fails with error "Guar-
dian or User Defined Error 197". To remove this type of file on these RVUs, a local user must
execute the rm command.
File-Label and SQL Catalog Table Inconsistencies
When you issue the rm command to purge a remote OSS SQL program and the command fails
due to certain failure scenarios such as a CPU failure, disk failure, or application outage, this
failure can cause an inconsistency between the program file label and the corresponding SQL
catalog. The program can lose its SQL properties, but have SQL catalog entries present. In this
case, the following conditions occur:
• The program does not run after losing its SQL properties.
• The SQL catalog tables have stray entries for this program file. The program exists, but
its just like a normal Enscribe file.
• If any DDL command is issued on a table on which the program depends, the program
obtains partial SQL properties and remains invalid.
