Can I simply dismount it, remove it and delete it from disk or are there other considerations? Can I recreated it again as an empty data base, with the same name or is that a bad idea? ___________________________________ Stefan Jafs ________________________________ CONFIDENTIALITY STATEMENT: The information transmitted, or contained or attached to or with this Notice is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain Protected Health Information (PHI), confidential and/or privileged material.
