NAME remove object - Removes a value from a set-valued or single-valued attribute (including application-defined attributes) of an object entry SYNOPSIS cdscp remove object object-name attribute-name [= attribute-value] ARGUMENTS object name The full name of the object entry. attribute-name The name of a particular attribute. Specify only one attribute at a time. See the cds_attributes file for the list of attributes and corresponding data types that your application uses. attribute-value The value of a particular attribute.

DESCRIPTION The remove object command removes a value from a set-valued or single-valued attribute (including application-defined attributes) of an object entry. If you do not specify a value, the command removes the entire attribute. This command can delete attributes created by the add object and set object commands. Usually, this task is performed through the client application. See the OSF DCE Administration Guide for more information about attributes. Privilege Required You must have write permission to the object entry. NOTE This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.
