NAME

remove − remove a file from a server

SYNOPSIS

Tremove tag[2] fid[2]
Rremove tag[2] fid[2]

DESCRIPTION

The ­remove request asks the file server both to remove the file represented by ­fid and to ­clunk the fid, even if the remove fails. This request will fail if the client does not have write permission in the parent directory.

It is correct to consider ­remove to be a ­clunk with the side effect of removing the file if permissions allow. 

ENTRY POINTS

­Remove messages are generated by the ­remove call (see sys-remove(2)).
