on the external memory card:

Deleting Files From the Switch

To delete a configuration or policy file from your system, use the following command:
rm {memorycard} <file-name>
Where the following is true:
—Specifies the removable external compact flash card. (This parameter is available only
●
memorycard
on modular switches.)
—Specifies the name of the configuration or policy file to delete.
●
file-name
When you delete a configuration or policy file from the system, make sure you specify the appropriate
file extension. For example, if you want to delete a policy file, specify the filename and .pol. After you
delete a file, it is unavailable to the system.
When you delete a file from the switch, a message similar to the following appears:
Remove testpolicy.pol from switch? (y/n)
Enter to remove the file from your system. Enter
y
system.
Modular Switches Only
This command also replicates the action from the primary MSM to the backup MSM. For example, if
you delete a file on the primary MSM, the same file on the backup MSM is deleted.
