.TH REMOVE 9P
.SH NAME
remove \- remove a file from a server
.SH SYNOPSIS
.ta \w'\fLTremove 'u
.IR size [4]
.B Tremove
.IR tag [2]
.IR fid [4]
.br
.IR size [4]
.B Rremove
.IR tag [2]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B remove
request asks the file server both to remove the file represented by
.I fid
and to
.B clunk
the
.IR fid ,
even if the remove fails.
This request will fail if the client does not have write permission
in the parent directory.
.PP
It is correct to consider
.B remove
to be a
.B clunk
with the side effect of removing the file if permissions allow.
.PP
If a file has been opened as multiple fids,
possibly on different connections,
and one fid is used to remove the file,
whether the other fids continue to provide access to the file
is implementation-defined.
The Plan 9 file servers
remove the file immediately: attempts to use the other fids
will yield a
``phase error.''
.IR U9fs
follows the semantics of the underlying Unix file system,
so other fids typically remain usable.
.SH ENTRY POINTS
.I Fsremove
(see
.MR 9pclient (3) )
generates
.B remove
messages.
