The -p option may be used to specify the password for the database user (or a file holding the password). If not specified, the password is obtained using the EQ_DBUSER and/or EQ_DBPASSWORD environment variables.

The -f option forces to purge the database, even if deletion of sets fails.

-d flags

The -d option specifies debug flags and is normally not used.

Notes

• The database to be purged may not be opened by any users.

• The database user performing dbpurge needs to have DBA or OPERATOR privileges, or else be member of a group that has DADMIN group privileges for the target database.
