The Default Delete Handler policy deletes 1) the object on which the delete operation was requested and 2) all of that object's nonshared components (as identified by the list that the collector returns to the handler).

The Default Delete Handler policy is used by many of the predefined asset types installed with CentraSite. CentraSite also uses this handler to delete policies and lifecycle models. Do not edit, delete, or deactivate this policy.

The Default Delete Handler is automatically assigned to new types that you add to CentraSite.

The Default Delete Handler is different than the other handler policies in that it executes on an event (the PreDelete event) that is also used to trigger user-defined policies. The Default Delete Handler has a priority of 1, which ensures that it executes before any user-defined policies that are also scoped for the PreDelete event.
