Specify D in the Cmd column for the desired file. The confirm delete screen will be displayed. When you press ENTER to confirm (figure 1-26), the file is deleted. It CANNOT be recovered.

Specifying YES to delete SAS files on this confirmation screen will invoke SAS in the foreground to delete the files that are associated with the file definition. Specifying NO will delete the file definition without deleting the SAS files. If you delete the file definition but do not delete the associated SAS files, these files will no longer be accessible by the
MICS Capacity Planner
. If SAS files exist for this definition, this option will default to YES; otherwise, it will default to NO.
You would ordinarily allow this option to remain as it defaults, unless your installation does not permit even brief execution of SAS functions in foreground. If you change this option to NO, submit a batch job at some time in the future to delete these SAS files.
