Deleting a Database
Use the PRODEL utility to delete a database. For example:
NOTE: For the complete syntax, see Database Administration Utilities."When you delete a database, PRODEL displays a message that it is deleting all files that start with db-name (the name of the database). PRODEL prompts you to confirm the deletions, depending on your system.
When you delete a database, PRODEL deletes all associated files and extents that were created using the structure description file (database, log, before-image, and after-image files, and with two-phase commit, the transaction log file).
NOTE: The PRODEL utility does not delete the actual structure description file so that a file of your database structure is retained.
