 Use this directive to delete a Naming Context entity.

 Syntax:

 	DELETE DSA NAMING CONTEXT <name>

1  –  Errors

 The DELETE directive can return one of the following errors:

 REASON:         Has Subordinates
 DESCRIPTION:    The DSA has entries or entities subordinate
                 to the entity being deleted.

                 You cannot remove a Naming Context entity if it
                 contains directory entries or further entities, such
                 as Subordinate Reference entities. You must delete
                 everything beneath the Naming Context entity first.

 REASON:         Not Empty
 DESCRIPTION:    You cannot delete a Naming Context that contains
                 entries.

                 The Naming Context entity coexists with a directory
                 entry. You cannot delete the entity until you have
                 deleted the directory entry.

 REASON:         Contains Alias
 DESCRIPTION:    The alias entry with the same name must be deleted
                 before the Naming Context can be deleted.

                 The Naming Context entity coexists with an alias
                 entry. You cannot delete the entity until you
                 have deleted the alias entry using DXIM, or another
                 directory application.

 REASON:         Alias Entry
 DESCRIPTION:    Alias entry prevents deletion.

                 The identifier you specified for the Naming Context
                 entity is an alias name, not a distinguished name.
                 The DSA does not support the use of alias names
                 when deleting entities. Specify the distinguished
                 name of the entry that is at the top of the naming
                 context. The response indicates the name of the
                 alias entry.

 REASON:		Wrong State
 DESCRIPTION: 	The DSA entity is not in the correct state.

                 The DSA entity must be in state ON or OFF when you
                 delete a Naming Context entity. If the DSA is in
                 any other state, such as ENABLING or UPDATING, the
                 command fails. The response indicates the current
                 state of the DSA.
