[Networker] How to delete a client file index?

Hi,

Running 7.5.1 on Linux RH.

I have some old clients that I want to remove from disk because they'retaking up space and licenses. I have their NSR client resourceinformation saved, including the clientid - not that I couldn't get thatfrom the media database - but just in case. I also have full backups oftheir indexes. I don't need these anymore.

Can I just remove the NSR client resources from NMC and then run 'nsrck-R -Y client'. Is that all I need to do? Is that the correct order?

Also, why not just run 'rm -rf client'. I mean, aside from the obviouspossibility for horrible mistype, does the nsrck command accomplishanything more or better?

Even if NW was somehow trying to prune the index when you ran it, whatdifference would it make if you don't need it anymore?


Thanks.

George
