rm –Rf <old_load_directory>

Attention: Use extreme caution when using rm -Rf commands. Entering a typo can cause an entire file system to be removed without confirmation if you have the proper user privileges. For example, entering a command such as rm -Rf / mcp/loads (with an extra space after the first forward slash) can remove the entire directory tree.

7Exit from the SSH sessions for the SSA role (ntsysadm) and AA role (ntappadm) using Exit.
