NAME


dbrm - completely remove a database

SYNOPSIS


dbrm [-vxy] dbname

DESCRIPTION


Dbrm removes a database from the system.  Before actually removing the
database itself, all of the logical RMSfiles, reportfiles and formfiles
defined for the database are removed.  Then, the home directory of the
database and everything below that directory is removed.

Normally, when dbrm is run, a message is displayed to warn you about 
what is to happen. If you decide against removing the database, enter 
no and nothing is changed.

With the -v flag selected, progress information is displayed on standard
output.  The -x flag displays commands run by dbrm.  If the -y flag is
selected, no confirmation is required to remove the database dbname.

You must have permission to remove all the logical files and the home 
directory of the database for this command to succeed.

NOTES


Once removed, the only way to recover a database is to either re-enter
it or restore it from backups.
