5429.0. "Purging exported data...........?" by KERNEL::DAVIES () Wed Aug 04 1993 08:41
	Hi,
	I have a simple question regarding the purging of exported data.
	With the historian you can specify a keep age for collected data
	and it will be automatically purged for you.  If, however, you 
	are exporting to an RDB file, either on-line or from the MIR, how 
	do you purge data then?
	Are there specific RDB tools to do this??
	Any help greatly appreciated.

    $ define sql$database dka...[blahblah]blah
    $ mc sql$
    set transaction read write;
    delete FROM MCC_SNMP_INTERFACE WHERE TIME_STAMP < '23-JUL-1993' ;
