Deleting an SprSnap Directory

Prerequisites

Safety

Before working in any GE Healthcare MR suite or performing any GE Healthcare service procedure, you must:

  • Have read and understood all hazard conditions and safety requirements in the latest revision of the GE Healthcare MR Service Safety Manual (5452735).
  • Have successfully completed all relevant GE Healthcare Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) courses (or for non-GE employees, equivalent workplace training courses).
  • Comply with all site-specific training and workplace safety requirements.

If you have any safety concerns at any time, do not begin work or immediately stop work and move to a safe location. Immediately contact your supervisor or site safety officer for instructions on how to proceed.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the host computer as root.
    note:

    It is possible that the customer changed the default password. If you cannot log in, contact the customer for the correct password.

  2. From a C Shell terminal, locate the directory you want to delete in /export/home/snap/site.
  3. Type cd/export/home/snap/site/ and press Enter.
  4. Type ls to view the files.
  5. Type rm-rf <filename>.

    -r deletes the directory recursively, and -f forces all files to be deleted without asking permission.

    note:

    If you created a tarball file, you should delete it with the command rm -rf tar zip directory, where tar zip directory is the name of your tarball file.

    Figure 1. Remove Directory and Tarball

    note:

    To avoid deleting the wrong files, do not use wildcards when deleting the SprSnap directory. Each SprSnap has its own directory in /export/home/snap/site.
