Called as:

delete-index {-a} filename { {indexname {indexname ...}} | *} {(S)}

Supported options are:

-a Delete ALL indexes in the file
(S)Silent mode

This command is called to delete one or more index definitions that are associated with a file. All the space taken by the index is released to the file overflow space (but not necessarily the operating system file free space).

Option -a causes all index definitions to be deleted. Without option -a you need to specify one or more index name on the command line.

Example: Delete ALL the index definitions for file PRODUCTS can be done in two different ways.

jsh--> DELETE-INDEX -a PRODUCTS

jsh--> DELETE-INDEX PRODUCTS *

Example: Delete the index name 'value' in the file PRODUCTS

% delete-index PRODUCTS value
