Deleting Virtual Services
If you are not the owner of a Virtual Service asset, you cannot delete the Virtual Service unless you have Full permission on the Virtual Service (granted though either a role-based permission or instance-level permission).
The following general guidelines apply when deleting a Virtual Service asset in CentraSite Control:
*A Virtual Service asset can only be deleted if it is not the target of an association from another registry object.
*When you delete a Virtual Service asset, CentraSite removes the catalog entry for the Virtual Service (that is, it removes the instance of the Virtual Service asset from CentraSite's object database). Also note that:
*The performance metrics and event information of the Virtual Service are also deleted.
Note:
When you delete the Virtual Service, this information is deleted by the built-in action Delete RuntimeEvents and RuntimeMetrics of Service, which is installed with CentraSite.
*When you delete a composite Virtual Service asset, all of its nonshared components are also deleted.
*Deleting a Virtual Service asset will not remove:
*Other assets to which the Virtual Service refers (unless the reference is to an asset that is a nonshared component of the Virtual Service you are deleting). For example, if you are deleting a Virtual Service which has a Consumes or Consumed By relationship with other services in the registry, the related services will not be deleted.
*Supporting documents that are attached to the Virtual Service.
*Earlier versions of the Virtual Service. Only the latest version of an asset can be deleted; to remove earlier versions, they must be purged.
*You cannot delete a Virtual Service asset if:
*The Virtual Service is in a pending state (for example, awaiting approval).
*Any user in your CentraSite registry is currently modifying the Virtual Service.
*To delete Virtual Service assets
1. In CentraSite Control, go to Asset Catalog > Browse.
2. In the displayed list of asset types, select Virtual Service.
The Virtual Service assets (for which you have the View permission) are displayed in the Assets pane.
3. Right-click a Virtual Service you want to delete, and then click Delete.
You can also select multiple Virtual Services, click the Actions menu, and click Delete.
4. Click OK in the confirmation dialog box.
Note:
If you have selected a set of Virtual Services, where one or multiple Virtual Services are in a pending state (for example, awaiting approval), CentraSite ignores the pending list of Virtual Services, and deletes any remaining Virtual Services for which you have the required permission.
