lfs-rmfid(1)

NAME

lfs-rmfid - remove file by FID

SYNOPSIS

lfs rmfid <directory> <FID1> [<FID2>...]

DESCRIPTION

This command removes file(s) specified by the FID.
In some cases it is more optimal to remove files by their FIDs. The directory specifies a mountpoint of Lustre filesystem where given FIDs are stored. The mountpoint should be mounted with user_fid2path mount option and the caller has to have a right to modify the given files. rmfid will be trying to remove all hardlinks of the given file. FIDs can be wrapped with square brackets.

EXAMPLES

lfs rmfid /mnt/lustre [0x200000400:0x1:0x0] [0x200000402:0x20:0x0]

Remove files with FIDs [0x200000400:0x1:0x0] [0x200000402:0x20:0x0]
