Closed as program error.

Error description
Customer is not able to delete WebSphere variables using the
administrative console.  This is attempted by navigating to
Environment ==> WebSphere Variables.  This process appears to
work, but when the changes are saved, no update is made and the
variables reappear in the display.  This fails when selecting
'All scopes' and when selecting a specific scope.
Local fix
Rename the variable to some other name

*                      cannot be deleted using the             *
*                      Administrative Console. Variable        *

****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
In the Administrative Console -> Environment ->
WebSphere Variables, selecting variable(s) and clicking Delete
appears to work. However, after a Save and revisiting the panel,
the variable returns. This is because the delete action only
deletes the variable from the form and not the workspace.
Problem conclusion
Code changes have been made to update the workspace so that the
variable gets deleted correctly.

APAR PK57844 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service
Level (Fix Pack) 6.1.0.15 of WebSphere Application Server V6.1
