The name specified must be that of a server or data mover that is already defined to the server.

destination_name (Required)

Specifies the name of the destination of the path to be deleted. This parameter is required.

SRCType (Required)

Specifies the source type of the path to be deleted. This parameter is required. Possible values are:

DATAMover: Specifies that a data mover is the source.
SERVer: Specifies that a storage agent is the source.

DESTType (Required)

Specifies the type of the destination. Possible values are:

DRive LIBRary=library_name: Specifies that a drive is the destination. The DRIVE and LIBRARY parameters are both required when the destination type is drive.
LIBRary: Specifies that a library is the destination.
Attention: If the path from a data mover to a library is deleted, or the path from the server to a library is deleted, the server will not be able to access the library. If the server is halted and restarted while in this state, the library will not be initialized.

Example: Delete a NAS data mover path

Delete a path from a NAS data mover NAS1 to the library NASLIB.
