The process for deciding whether or not to delete a stream file is
basically the same process you use for any other file...   check to see if
anyone's using it...  if not, decide whether it makes business sense to
save the data or not.

Usually, at the very least, you want to back it up to tape before deleting
it, just in case it turns out to be something you needed.

Once you've decided to delete it, just do:

   RMVLNK '/path/to/mystmf.ext'

Or, if you don't know the exact path name, start with:

   WRKLNK '/something/close'

then navigate to it, and when you find it, use the '4' option to delete
it.

Those are the native commands.   Other ways to delete files in the IFS
would be QShell, NFS, Windows Network Neighborhood, iSeries Navigator,
FTP...
