DELETE/FAMILY

This command deletes a workload family definition from the parameters file.

Format

DELETE/FAMILY name

Parameter

name

A workload family name is a 1 to 20-character alphanumeric string that represents a set of workloads.

Description

The DELETE/FAMILY command deletes a workload family definition from the parameters file. You can delete a workload family definition if it is not referenced by history file descriptors.

You cannot delete the workload families MODEL_USERGROUPS and MODEL_TRANSACTIONS because they are needed as default families when you develop a model of the system workload from Performance Management data. You may, however, modify these families, see MODIFY/FAMILY.

Example

>PSDC-EDIT> DELETE/FAMILY DEPARTMENTS

This command deletes the workload family named DEPARTMENTS.
