name "string" cannot be modified because it has children

Cause

A caller has attempted to delete or rename a global name, and that name cannot be modified because it has child names underneath it in the name space.


Action

Not normally visible to the user, except when using the name server control program. If the error occurs when using the control program, retry the failing operation with a name that is a leaf node. Otherwise, turn on tracing and re-execute the failing operation. If the error persists, contact Worldwide Customer Support.
