Unregister an archive

You can unregister any archive except the primary archive (archive number 0), which stores the current data.

1. At a command prompt, go to the PI\adm directory.

2. Type the following command:

   piartool -au path

   where path specifies a complete, not relative, path name.

   For example, the following command unregisters the archive called piarch.006 in the PI\dat directory on the D drive:

   piartool -au D:\PI\dat\piarch.006

   Note: You can use the wildcard characters * and ? to unregister archives in bulk. The symbol * matches all possibilities with any number of characters. The symbol ? matches a single character and may be used any number of times. For example, the following command unregisters all archive files that begin with the piarch.0 prefix and are located in the PI\dat directory:

   piartool -au D:\PI\dat\piarch.0*
