Prerequisites:

  • Know the container you want to delete
  • Have delphix_admin privileges

Procedure:

  1. Log into Delphix Engine as admin 

    ssh delphix@<yourengine>

  2. Navigate to the Delphix Self-Service container that you want to delete 

    delphix > selfservice container
delphix selfservice container > ls
delphix selfservice container > select CONTAINER_X
delphix selfservice container 'CONTAINER_X' >

  3. Delete container, note you need to set if you want to delete the VDBs in the container (false will preserve the VDBs and true the VDBs will be deleted along with the container) 

    delphix selfservice container 'CONTAINER_X' > delete
delphix selfservice container 'CONTAINER_X'delete *> set deleteDataSources=<true/false>
delphix selfservice container 'CONTAINER_X'delete *> commit
