DELETE GROUP Command
The DELETE GROUP command deletes group definition records for specified groups.
You can specify groups by either group name or group number in a DELETE GROUP
command, but you cannot mix names and numbers within the same command. If you
specify group names, they can contain wild-card characters.
A group cannot be deleted if it contains members. You must remove all members from
a group before you can delete that group record.
The owner of a group definition record, the owner’s group manager, and the super ID
can delete that group record.
DELETE GROUP { [ NAME ] name-list | NUMBER num-list }
