Deleting configurations

Use this procedure to delete configurations. If you delete a configuration, the default behavior for the component is displayed unless there is a personalization that applies for individual users.

  1. Select Administration Console > Configuration and Personalization > Configuration > Delete Configurations or Configuration Console > Utilities > Configuration > Delete Configurations.
  2. Specify this information:
    Subdirectory
    To place the report of deleted configurations in a subdirectory of the FTP site directory, specify that directory.
    Command Output File Name
    Specify a name for the command output file. For example, CDDeleteOut.txt.
    Create User Report
    To create a user report, select this check box.
    Options

    Select the check boxes to indicate the types of configurations to delete.

    If you select the Delete Application Data check box, you can select a subtype to delete. When you select this check box, the Delete User Field Storage and Delete All Status check boxes are available. Select the Delete All Status check box to include all statuses in the deletion. You can clear this check box and then select the check boxes for the statuses to include.

    If you select the Delete User Defined Replication Set Data check box, the deletion includes replication set definitions that are not delivered. It includes delivered replication set definitions that include customer-defined replicate fields or customer-defined business classes. For delivered replication set definitions with customer-defined items, only the customer-defined items are deleted. You can also delete a single user-defined replication set definition by specifying the replication set name in the Replication Set field.

    To delete a snapshot of the configurations, select the Delete Snapshot check box and select a snapshot. If you select the Delete Snapshot check box, you cannot select any other delete option.

  3. Click Schedule to schedule the action for another time or click Submit to immediately delete the configurations.
