After an application no longer is needed, you can delete
it.
About this task
Deleting a business-level application removes the application
from the product configuration repository and it deletes the application
binaries from the file system of all nodes where the application files
are installed.
Procedure
- Go to the Business-level
applications page.
Click in the console navigation tree.
- If you need to retain a copy of the application, back up
composition units of the application.
- Delete composition units of the application.
- On the Business-level applications page, click the name
of the business-level application that you want to delete.
- On the business-level application settings page, delete
each composition unit of the application. Deployed assets
and business-level applications can be composition units of a business-level
application.
Select one or more composition units and
click Delete.
- On the Delete composition unit from Business-level application
page, confirm the deletion and click OK.
- Repeat steps b and c until the business-level application
that you want to delete has no more composition units.
Deleting a composition unit removes the configuration
from the profile_root/config/cells/cell_name/cus directory.
- Delete the business-level application.
- Select the application that you want to delete.
- Click Delete.
Unless the application is used by another business-level
application, deleting a business-level application removes the configuration
from the profile_root/config/cells/cell_name/blas directory.
- On the Delete business-level application page, confirm
the deletion and click OK.
- Save changes made to the administrative configuration.
Results
On single-server products, application binaries are deleted
after you save the changes.
What to do next
If using the administrative console
Delete options
does not fully delete a business-level application or its composition
units, you can delete the business-level application and its composition
units manually from a stand-alone server. Suppose you want to delete a business-level
application named
ExampleBLA, and
ExampleBLA is
not used by another business-level application. Complete the following
steps to manually delete the
ExampleBLA configurations
from the
blas and
cus directories:
- Delete the profile_root/config/cells/cell_name/blas/ExampleBLA directory.
- Delete the profile_root/config/cells/cell_name/cus/ExampleBLA directory.
- Save changes made to the administrative configuration.
