NAME

       s3qlrm - Fast tree removal on S3QL file systems

SYNOPSIS

          s3qlrm [options] <directory>

DESCRIPTION

       S3QL is a file system for online data storage. Before using S3QL, make sure to consult the
       full documentation (rather than just  the  man  pages  which  only  briefly  document  the
       available userspace commands).

       The  s3qlrm  command  recursively  deletes  files  and directories on an S3QL file system.
       Although s3qlrm is faster than using e.g.  rm -r`, the main reason for  its  existence  is
       that it allows you to delete immutable trees (which can be created with s3qllock) as well.

       Be warned that there is no additional confirmation. The directory will be removed entirely
       and immediately.

       s3qlrm can only be called by the user that mounted the file system and (if the file system
       was  mounted  with  --allow-other or --allow-root) the root user. This limitation might be
       removed in the future (see issue 155).

OPTIONS

       The s3qlrm command accepts the following options:

          --debug
                 activate debugging output

          --quiet
                 be really quiet

          --version
                 just print program version and exit

EXIT STATUS

       s3qlrm returns exit code 0 if the operation succeeded and 1 if some error occurred.

SEE ALSO

       The S3QL homepage is at http://code.google.com/p/s3ql/.

       The full S3QL documentation should also be installed  somewhere  on  your  system,  common
       locations are /usr/share/doc/s3ql or /usr/local/doc/s3ql.
