DLTY (DELETE_TYPE) -- Delete a type.
usage:  DLTY type_name [-N node_spec] [-L] {CL}


FORMAT

  DLTY type_name [options]


  DLTY deletes a type and any installed type manager.


ARGUMENTS

  type_name
  (required)         Specify the name of the type to be deleted.


OPTIONS

  -N node_spec        Specify the node on which the type is to be deleted.   See
                     HELP NODE_SPEC for details about node specification syntax.
                     You  may  also  specify  the  entry  directory  of a volume
                     mounted for software  updates,  as  shown  in  the  example
                     below.    If this option is omitted, the type is deleted on
                     the current node.

  -L                 List the type name/type identifier pair that is deleted.


EXAMPLES

  1. $ dlty example_type -l
     "example_type" 24BF9F41.100001FB deleted.

  2. $ dlty example_type -n //test_vol -l
     "example_type" 24BFA6F8.200001FB deleted from volume //test_vol.

  In the following example, the disk has been mounted for software updates.  The
  disk's  top level directory (catalogued as '/mount_disk' by the MTVOL command)
  must contain a "sys" directory. If it does not, you will get a "types file not
  found" error.

  3. $ mtvol w /mount_disk
     $ dlty example_type -n /mount_disk -l
     "example_type" 24BFB71E.200001FB deleted from volume //my_node/mount_disk.
