Rich's command below is fine if you want to erase a file on DIRMAINT,
but Derek asked how to erase a file on DISKACNT. DIRMAINT has no
special powers to erase files on other virtual machines. You either
need to shut DISKACNT down to erase the file, or use Shared File System
instead of a minidisk to collect data on DISKACNT.

Kris, while your solution is elagant, it seems like overkill for Derek's
problem.
Assuming that:
1) DIRMAINT is up and running,
2) Derek knows the Fn Ft of the file to be erased. and
3) The userid Derek is using has the proper authorizations.
Then I would simply have him do:
DIRM CMS ERASE Fn Ft A
