NAME

       bos_delete - Deletes a server process from the BosConfig file

SYNOPSIS

       bos delete -server <machine name>
           -instance <server process name>+ [-cell <cell name>]
           [-noauth] [-localauth] [-help]

       bos d -s <machine name> -i <server process name>+
           [-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The bos delete command removes the /etc/openafs/BosConfig entry for each process indicated by the
       -instance argument, on the server machine named by the -server argument.

       Before issuing this command, issue the bos stop command to stop the process and set its status flag in
       the BosConfig file to "NotRun". The bos delete command fails with an error message if a process's status
       flag is "Run".

OPTIONS

       -server <machine name>
           Indicates the server machine on which to delete the server process entry from the
           /etc/openafs/BosConfig file. Identify the machine by IP address or its host name (either fully-
           qualified or abbreviated unambiguously). For details, see bos(8).

       -instance <server process name>+
           Names each process to delete. Use the name assigned with the -instance argument to the bos create
           command; process names appear in the output of the bos status command.

       -cell <cell name>
           Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag.
           For more details, see bos(8).

       -noauth
           Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the
           -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).

       -localauth
           Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile or
           /etc/openafs/server/KeyFileExt file.  The bos command interpreter presents the ticket to the BOS
           Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For
           more details, see bos(8).

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

EXAMPLES

       The following command removes the buserver, kaserver, ptserver, and vlserver entries from the BosConfig
       file on "db3.example.com", a database server machine being decommissioned.

          % bos delete -server db3.example.com \
              -instance buserver kaserver ptserver vlserver

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine named by the -server
       argument, or must be logged onto a server machine as the local superuser "root" if the -localauth flag is
       included.

       The bos delete command cannot be run against servers which are in restricted mode.
