ppppmmmmnnnnssssddddeeeellll - delete a subtree of names from the Performance Co-Pilot PMNS
SSSSYYYYNNNNOOOOPPPPSSSSIIIISSSS
////uuuussssrrrr////ppppccccpppp////bbbbiiiinnnn////ppppmmmmnnnnssssddddeeeellll [----dddd] [----nnnn _n_a_m_e_s_p_a_c_e] _m_e_t_r_i_c_p_a_t_h [ ... ]

ppppmmmmnnnnssssddddeeeellll removes subtrees of names from a Performance Metrics Name Space
(PMNS), as used by the components of the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP).
Normally ppppmmmmnnnnssssddddeeeellll operates on the default Performance Metrics Namespace
(PMNS), however if the ----nnnn option is specified an alternative namespace is
used from the file _n_a_m_e_s_p_a_c_e.
The default PMNS is found in the file /_v_a_r/_p_c_p/_p_m_n_s/_r_o_o_t unless the
environment variable PPPPMMMMNNNNSSSS____DDDDEEEEFFFFAAAAUUUULLLLTTTT is set, in which case the value is
assumed to be the pathname to the file containing the default PMNS.
The metric names to be deleted are all those for which one of the
_m_e_t_r_i_c_p_a_t_h arguments is a prefix in the PMNS, see ppppmmmmnnnnssss(4).
All of the files defining the PMNS must be located within the directory
that contains the root of the PMNS, and this would typically be
////vvvvaaaarrrr////ppppccccpppp////ppppmmmmnnnnssss for the default PMNS, and this would typically imply
running ppppmmmmnnnnssssddddeeeellll as root.
Provided some initial integrity checks are satisfied, ppppmmmmnnnnssssddddeeeellll will update
the necessary PMNS files. ppppmmmmnnnnssssddddeeeellll will then attempt to compile the
resultant namespace using ppppmmmmnnnnssssccccoooommmmpppp(1) - if this fails for any reason, the
original namespace is restored. Note that any PMNS files that are no
longer referenced by the modified namespace will not be removed, even
though though their contents are not part of the new namespace.
The ----dddd option allows the resultant PMNS to optionally contain duplicate
PMIDs with different names in the PMNS. By default this condition is
considered an error.
