Example
This example deletes network elements listed in the
netelements.csv file, places into the
netelements.reject file any records that could not be deleted, and reports errors to the
deleteerrors.txt file.
$INCHOME/etc/cli/DeleteNetElement.sh –u joe –p joepwd –f netelements.csv
–r netelements.reject –e deleteerrors.txt
–r netelements.reject –e deleteerrors.txt
File Format
By design, the input file format for
DeleteNetElement
is the same as the format for
ImportNetElement
and
ExportNetElement
. This way, one can use the same file to
delete a set of network elements and then re-add them without copying data. Specify the
name or the IP address of the network element. If the IP address is not unique, the name
must be specified.
