=head1 DESCRIPTION The B command removes files from the local disk of the server machine named by the B<-server> argument, as specified by one or more of the following flags provided on the command line: =over 4 =item * The B<-bak> flag removes all files from the F directory that have a C<.BAK> extension. =item * The B<-old> flag removes all files from the F directory that have a C<.OLD> extension. =item * The B<-core> flag removes all files from the F directory that have a C prefix. =item * The B<-all> flag removes all three types of files at once. =back (If none of these flags are included, the command appears to succeed, but removes no files at all.) To display the timestamp on the current, C<.BAK>, and C<.OLD> versions of one or more files, use the B command. =head1 OPTIONS =over 4 =item B<-server> > Indicates the server machine from which to remove files. Identify the machine by IP address or its host name (either fully-qualified or abbreviated unambiguously). For details, see L. =item B<-bak> Removes all files from the F directory that have a C<.BAK> extension. Do not combine this flag and the B<-all> flag. =item B<-old> Removes all files from the F directory that have a C<.OLD> extension. Do not combine this flag and the B<-all> flag. =item B<-core> Removes all files from the F directory that have a C prefix. Do not combine this flag and the B<-all> flag. =item B<-all> Combines the effect of the B<-bak>, B<-old>, and B<-core> flags. Do not combine this flag with any of those three. =item B<-cell> > Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L. =item B<-noauth> Assigns the unprivileged identity C to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L. =item B<-localauth> Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local F file. The B command interpreter presents the ticket to the BOS Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the B<-cell> or B<-noauth> options. For more details, see L. =item B<-help> Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. =back =head1 EXAMPLES The following example removes all files from the F directory on the machine C that have a C<.BAK> or C<.OLD> extension. % bos prune -server fs3.example.com -bak -old The following example removes all files from the F directory on the machine C that have a C<.BAK> or C<.OLD> extension, and all files from the F directory that have a C prefix. % bos prune -server db2.example.com -all =head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED The issuer must be listed in the F file on the machine named by the B<-server> argument, or must be logged onto a server machine as the local superuser C if the B<-localauth> flag is included. The B command cannot be run against servers which are in restricted mode. =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L, L =head1 COPYRIGHT IBM Corporation 2000. All Rights Reserved.
