rmfdmn(8) — Maintenance
NAME
rmfdmn − removes a file domain
SYNOPSIS
/sbin/rmfdmn [-f] domain
domainSpecifies the name of an existing file domain.
FLAGS
-fTurns off the message prompt.
DESCRIPTION
The rmfdmn utility enables you to remove an unused file domain. Before you can remove a file domain, unmount all filesets and clone filesets from the domain using the umount command. If you try to remove a file domain that has mounted filesets, the system displays an error message indicating that a fileset is mounted. AdvFS will not remove the file domain. For each file domain you will be prompted:
rmfdmn accounts_dmn
rmfdmn: remove domain accounts_dmn? [yes/no]
If you answer n, the file domain remains. If you answer y, it is removed.
The -f flag is useful for scripts when you do not want to be queried for each file domain. If you choose the -f flag, no message prompt will display. The rmfdmn command will operate as if you responded yes to the prompt.
RESTRICTIONS
You must be the root user to use this command.
To remove a domain, all filesets and clone filesets must be unmounted.
You must update the /etc/fdmns directory to delete the file domain entry for the deleted file domain.
EXAMPLES
The following example removes the accounts_dmn file domain. In this example, the credit_fs fileset is mounted on the /mnt3 directory and yes is selected at the verification prompt:
# umount /mnt3
# rmfdmn accounts_dmn
# rmfdmn: remove domain accounts_dmn? [yes/no]
# rmfdmn: domain accounts_dmn removed
