Remove Exascale files.

Syntax

rm [ -f ] [ -i ] [ -v ] file-name
   [{ -w | --wallet } wallet-location ]
   [{ -T | --trace } trace-level ] 
   [{ -j | --json } [ --compact ]]

Command Options

The options for the rm command are:

  • file-name: Specifies the files being removed.

    You can use a wildcard (%) in the file-name to specify multiple files.

  • -f: Forces removal of open files.

  • -i: Interactively prompt for confirmation before deleting a file.

  • -v: Print the names of the files being deleted.

  • -w, --wallet: Optionally specifies the path to the Exascale wallet directory.

  • -T, --trace: Optionally enables tracing, with the trace level (trace-level) set to 1 (minimum tracing), 2 (medium tracing), or 3 (maximum tracing). If the trace level is not specified, then minimum tracing is enabled by default.

    The trace file is written to the first accessible location in the following list:

    1. If the $ADR_BASE environment variable is set:

      $ADR_BASE/diag/EXC/xsh_<user-name>/<host-name>/trace/xsh_<date>.trc
    2. /var/log/oracle/diag/EXC/xsh_<user-name>/<host-name>/trace/xsh_<date>.trc
    3. /tmp/diag/EXC/xsh_<user-name>/<host-name>/trace/xsh_<date>.trc
  • -j, --json: Displays the output in JSON format.

  • --compact: Displays JSON formatted output in a compact format, without white space and line breaks.
