rmname
Removes the name of an element or VOB symbolic link from a directory version
A name can be removed from a directory only if that directory is checked out, Rmname
does not delete elements themselves, only references to elements. Use rmelem (very
carefully) to delete elements and all their names from their VOBs.

rmver
Removes a version from the version tree of an element
rmver deletes one or more versions from their elements, his command destroys
information irretrievably. Using it carelessly may compromise your organization's
ability to support old releases.

rmelem
Removes an element or symbolic link from a VOB
The rmelem command completely deletes one or more elements or symbolic links, This command
destroys information irretrievably. Using it carelessly may compromise your organization's ability to
support old releases. In many cases, it is better to use the rmname command.
