  Deleting The Undeletable File? 
 The Question is:
 
I have a four node VMS cluster that has a cluster mounted disk with a directory
 that contains file name entries, but no files. If you issue the command: dir
 dsa1:[pms.fa.rep.auto.hly], the system returns a list of 6 files. There are no
 files present. If I
 issue the command del dsa1:[pms.fa.rep.auto.hly]*.*;*, the system returns six
 errors, listing each file name and a "file not found" error.
 (%DELETE-W-FILNOTDEL, error deleting
 DSA1:[PMS.FA.REP.AUTO.HLY]HLY_20001005_1301_BOP_10.DAT;1 -RMS-E-ENF, file not
found.
 
We have performed an image backup and image restore on this disk in an attempt
 to remove these "ghost" file entries. How do we get these file name entries
 deleted from the directory?
 
 The Answer is:
 
  The OpenVMS Wizard will assume these entries are simply file headers
  with no files -- this typically involves alias entries.  Assuming
  that DIRECTORY/FULL shows "no such file", you can use the DCL command
  SET FILE/REMOVE to remove the dangling alias entries.
