PURGECONF 

Deletes subtrees of records from the configuration file.

Syntax 

PURGECONF [pathname]

Parameters 

pathname              The name of a path in the configuration file that
                      describes the location of the desired subtree.  It
                      is composed of one to eight path identifiers
                      separated by periods.  The format for the pathname
                      is:

                      pathid.pathid.pathid...

                      The last pathid specified must not exist in the
                      configuration file.  The second to last pathid must
                      exist.

Description 

PURGECONF purges records from the configuration file.  It functions in
the same way as the DELETE function key on screens (like the NETXPORT.NI
screen) that require you to delete, rename, add, or modify a
configuration subtree.  Note that the subtree will be purged whether or
not it contains data.

See also ADDCONF, READCONF, READALLCONF, VERSIONCONF, WRITECONF, and
UPDATECONF.
