RE: QSH RM

Actually, unless you have an alias or something, RM won't work. I think you
mean:

rm /dirname


If you want to clear out the files that are in /dirname but not remove the
directory name itself, you can do:
rm /dirname/*

If there are or might be directories under /dirname that you want to remove,

rm -rf /dirname/*

If you also want to remove /dirname:
rm -rf /dirname

See www.google.com - search for site:publib.boulder.ibm.com qsh reference

Within that PDF you will find rm under the "Utilities for working with files
and directories" section.

What do you suppose "no such path or directory" means? Which part of the
message is not clear?

Hi I'm running this command in a CLP :

QSH CMD('RM /myData/*')

This empties /myData ok, but as the directory 'test' exists in myData,
the program stops with :

rm: 001-2139 The object /myData/test is a directory. No such path or
directory.

I hit enter and everything's ok because I want the files in myData
deleted without touching any subdirectories. How can I prevent the
program from stopping? What does it mean by <No such path or directory>?
