NAME

       gfrm - remove Gfarm files, directories, or file replicas

SYNOPSIS

       gfrm [ -frRnqv ] [ -I file-section ] [ -h filesystem-node ] [ -D domain-name ] [ -H hostfile ] [ -N num-of-replicas ] [ -j num-of-threads ]
       gfarm-URL ...

DESCRIPTION

       gfrm removes each specified file.  It does not remove directories unless the -r or -R option is specified.  '.' or '..' cannot be removed.

       When the -I option is specified, gfrm removes the specified file section.  File section is an architecture name for executable files, or  a
       fragment index for a regular file.

       With  the -h, -D, or -H option, gfrm removes file replicas of each specified file or file section on the specified filesystem node(s).  All
       file replicas of a file cannot be removed, unless the -f option is specified.

OPTIONS

       -f     Even when all file replicas are specified by the -h, -D, or -H option, forcibly deletes all the file replica.   In  this	case,  the
	      specified file will be deleted.

       -j num-of-threads
	      Specifies  the  number of threads to delete file replicas simultaneously.  This option is only available when gfrm is compiled by an
	      OpenMP C compiler.

       -n     Prints file names to be deleted, but does not delete them.

       -q     Does not print any verbose message.

       -r, -R Removes all entries under the directories specified by the command-line argument recursively.

       -v     Prints verbose messages.

       -h filesystem-node
	      Specifies a filesystem node from which file replicas will be removed.  With the -I option, a file replica of the specified file sec-
	      tion will be removed.

       -D domain-name
	      Specifies a domain name of filesystem nodes on which file replicas will be removed.  With the -I option, a file replica of the spec-
	      ified file section will be removed.

       -H hostfile
	      Specifies a hostfile that lists filesystem nodes on which file replicas will be removed.	With the -I option, a file replica of  the
	      specified file section will be removed.

	      if ``-'' is specified, standard input is used to read the host list.

       -I file-section
	      Specifies  the  file section to be removed.  File section is an architecture name, such as sparc-sun-solaris8, for executable files,
	      and a fragment index for regular files.

       -N num-of-replicas
	      Specifies the maximum number of file replicas.  If files has more number of file replicas than specified, reduce the number of  file
	      replicas.

       -?     Displays a list of command options.
