Deleting an object means deleting it from the persistent store. Optionally, the delete operation can be called with an objectType parameter, which is one of the pre-defined LifeCycleManager interface names. If this parameter is specified, only objects of that type are accepted for delete. The interface names shown in the following list are allowed for a deletion; all others are rejected with an InvalidRequestException:

Objects have relationships to each other: some relationships prohibit object deletion, while other relationships are automatically cleaned up during deletion.
