RE: Cleaning IFS From Command Line

["Norbut, Jim" <Jim.Norbut@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Also makes me wonder if it would just "die"

In the middle because the stuff it needs to do the rm -r would be
deleted in the process....hmmm....anyone ever done this and care to
share a story.

?How would it delete every file from a windows server from the IFS of an
iseries ?  

I understand the OS part and all that.

And I agree....if you do this command...your boss
Better be right behind you hitting the "enter" key and
Have a signed document from the CIO also stating it's okay also :)

Yikes!  Don't run that!  That'll delete EVERYTHING.  Including the 
operating system (if you have enough authority).  Including every file 
on every Windows server on the network (if you have authority/access).
