NAME

       dpns_delete - logically delete a DPNS file entry in the name server

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include "dpns_api.h"

       int dpns_delete (const char *path)

DESCRIPTION

       dpns_delete  logically  deletes  a  DPNS  file  entry in the name server.  The file can be
       recovered by using dpns_undelete as long as a the reclaim utility has not been run on  the
       corresponding tape volume.

       path   specifies  the  logical pathname relative to the current DPNS directory or the full
              DPNS pathname.

RETURN VALUE

       This routine returns 0 if the operation was successful or -1 if the operation  failed.  In
       the latter case, serrno is set appropriately.
