Deleting a file

To delete a file, use the following command:
delete url
The URL can be a filename of up to 128 alphanumeric characters.
To copy a file named testconfig to a TFTP server and delete the file from nonvolatile storage, type the
following commands:
WSS# copy testconfig tftp://10.1.1.1/testconfig
success: sent 365 bytes in 0.401 seconds [ 910 bytes/sec]
WSS# delete testconfig
success: file deleted.
Caution! WSS Software does not prompt you to verify whether you want to delete a
file. When you press Enter after typing a delete command, WSS Software immediately
deletes the specified file. Nortel recommends that you copy a file to a TFTP server before
deleting the file.
Note. WSS Software does not allow you to delete the currently running software image
file or the running configuration.
