DELETE

System Testing Supervisor Script Language.

Purpose

The DELETE instruction deletes a local or remote file.

Syntax

DELETE <filename>

where:

• <filename> is a local or remote file to be deleted.

Description

If the file to be deleted does not exist or is write-protected, you will receive an error message. (See ERROR.)
