Removes an entry from a quota file. Requires write (W) access to the quota file. Format DISKQUOTA REMOVE owner
1 – Parameter
owner Specifies the user identification code (UIC) or rights identifier. You can specify the UIC in numeric or alphanumeric format. For complete information about UIC specification, see the VSI OpenVMS Guide to System Security. Rights identifiers are granted with the Authorize utility and use an ID format rather than a UIC format. For more information about rights identifiers, see the VSI OpenVMS Programming Concepts Manual. When working in nonlocal environments, be careful that the alphanumeric UIC or rights identifiers that you use are valid for the environment.
2 – Qualifier
2.1 /DEVICE
/DEVICE=device-spec Specifies the disk volume containing the quota file. SYSMAN validates the device specification and translates any logical name in the target environment before deleting the UIC entry. Without a device specification, SYSMAN uses the default disk on the target node. Unless you have set a default device with the SET PROFILE command, the default disk is the current device on the local node or the login default device on another node, depending on the established environment.
3 – Description
The DISKQUOTA REMOVE command eliminates the specified UIC from the quota file on the named device. If the usage count for the UIC is not zero, files remain on disk and the user can still log in, but any attempt to create or extend files will fail. The UIC [0,0] entry cannot be removed.
4 – Example
SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/NODE=MARS SYSMAN> SHOW PROFILE %SYSMAN-I-DEFDIR, Default directory on node MARS -- WORK2:[CASEY] %SYSMAN-I-DEFPRIV, Process privileges on node MARS -- TMPMGX OPER NETMBX SYSPRV SYSMAN> DISKQUOTA REMOVE /DEVICE=DUA45: [TTD,DAVIS] These commands remove UIC [TTD,DAVIS] from the quota file for disk DUA45, which is located on node MARS.
