Re: [EXTERNAL] Removing files directly on filer?

use "rm -i <prefix>*" and answer "y" to the ones you want to delete.

Hello Fellow Toasters,

I have several files that have an unusual characters in their names. Here are 3 examples.

99027496 -rwxr--r--. 1 fereyes sibyls 138284 Dec 17 2012 _Volumes_fereyes_Pm12_img12_data1_pxuser_cech3_px07-0106_Pm12_7_process_mr_AutoMR_run_9__combined_refine_001.pdb_Mon_Dec_17_151710_2012_modification_0.pdb.gz 99027497 -rwxr--r--. 1 fereyes sibyls 137894 Dec 17 2012 _Volumes_fereyes_Pm12_img12_data1_pxuser_cech3_px07-0106_Pm12_7_process_mr_AutoMR_run_9__combined_refine_001.pdb_Mon_Dec_17_151710_2012_modification_1.pdb.gz 99027498 -rwxr--r--. 1 fereyes sibyls 137467 Dec 17 2012 _Volumes_fereyes_Pm12_img12_data1_pxuser_cech3_px07-0106_Pm12_7_process_mr_AutoMR_run_9__combined_refine_001.pdb_Mon_Dec_17_151710_2012_modification_2.pdb.gz

I would like to delete them. I have tried all the tricks I know of to delete them from the NFS client side including the usually-bullet-proof method of deleting them by inode:

ls -li

To get the inode then:

find . -inum 99027498 -exec rm -i {} ;

and this is not working.

Is there some way to remove folders/files from the NetApp itself?

Thanks, Scott
