NAME
er_rm - remove performance experiments.
SYNOPSIS
er_rm [-f] experiment-list
er_rm -V
DESCRIPTION
er_rm removes one or more experiments or experiment groups
specified by experiment-list. To remove an experiment, you
need write permission in the directory that contains the
experiment. You do not need to have read or write permis-
sion on the experiment itself. When an experiment group is
specified, er_rm removes the group file and all the experi-
ments in the group. er_rm removes experiments recorded with
earlier versions of the tools.
CAUTION - Do not use the UNIX rm command to remove an exper-
iment recorded with earlier versions because it does not
remove all parts of the experiment. ALWAYS use er_rm. For
experiments recorded with this version of the tools, the
Unix command rm -r can be used, since the directory contain-
ing all experiment files is visible.
OPTIONS
-f Suppress any error message, and always succeed,
whether the experiments to be removed are found or
not.
-V Report the version of er_rm.
DIAGNOSTICS
er_rm: experiment: No such experiment.
