With the Isilon you can do most of your daily work with the GUI. Sometimes you need to go down to the command line to do the things you don’t normally have to do. Recently with a file migration I had some issues, and had trouble deleting the directory. To fix this issue I had to run this command.
isi job start treedelete –path=<PATH TO DIRECTORY FOR DELETION>
isi job status

Your code is slightly incorrect. It has an em-dash (–) but it should have two minus signs (–)

Thanks for point that out. I have not had to use that command in a long time.
