VMS Help  —  INSTALL  REMOVE
    Deletes a known image. The REMOVE command is identical to the
    DELETE command.

    Requires the CMKRNL privilege. Also requires the SYSGBL privilege
    to create system global sections and the PRMGBL privilege to
    create permanent global sections.

    Format

      REMOVE  file-spec

1  –  Parameter

 file-spec

    Names the file specification of a known image.

2  –  Description

    The REMOVE command deletes an entry from the known file list. The
    image's entry on the known file list and any global sections
    created for the image are deleted. The image file remains
    unaffected. Writable global sections are written back to disk
    upon their removal as known images.

    If a process is accessing global sections when the REMOVE command
    is entered, the global sections are deleted only after the
    operation initiated by the process completes. However, once the
    command is entered, no additional processes can access the global
    sections because they are marked for deletion.

3  –  Example

  INSTALL> REMOVE GRPCOMM

      The command in this example deletes the entry for the known
      image GRPCOMM from the known image file list.
