/SYSTEM /NOSYSTEM Controls whether the DELETE command deletes files with the file type .SYS. Files with the type .SYS are usually necessary for the operation of an RT-11 system. Only RT-11 volumes handle .SYS files in this manner. The default is /NOSYSTEM; the DELETE command does not delete an RT-11 file with the .SYS type, whether matched by a wildcard specification or explicitly named. EXCHANGE displays a message whenever it skips a SYS file during a delete operation.
