Removes one or more records from the ALF database.

    Requires read (R)  and write (W) access to the SYSALF database
    (SYS$SYSTEM:SYSALF.DAT).

    Format

      ALF REMOVE  device

1  –  Parameter

 device

    Specifies the terminal name or port name whose record you want
    to remove from ALF. The device name is required, even if you use
    qualifiers with the ALF REMOVE command.

    You can use wildcard characters in the terminal name or port
    name. For example, if you specify the device TTA*, the system
    removes all records that start with the string TTA. The system
    does not, however, remove any records that start with the string
    <nodename>$TTA (where <nodename> is the system's SCSNODE name).
    To remove records starting with $, you would have to specify
    $TTA* or use two wildcards: *TTA*.

    If you omit wildcard characters and enter a REMOVE command,
    SYSMAN attempts to match the device name exactly. If more
    than one record matches the criteria, SYSMAN displays an error
    message.

2  –  Qualifiers

2.1    /USERNAME

       /USERNAME=user

    Enables you to remove a record in ALF for a specific user
    associated with a device. You must also enter the device when
    you use the /USERNAME qualifier. You can use wildcard characters
    with the /USERNAME qualifier.

2.2    /CONFIRM

    Displays a message asking you to verify that you want to remove
    the record.

2.3    /LOG

    Displays each device name and user name after it has been removed
    from the ALF database.

3  –  Description

    The ALF REMOVE command removes one or more records from the ALF
    database.

                                   NOTE

       VSI recommends that you use caution when issuing REMOVE
       commands from Version 6.1 or lower SYSMAN clients to Version
       6.2 or higher systems.
