Removing Unused Physical Objects

Large repositories use more memory on the server and are harder to maintain. Additionally, development activities take longer on a large repository. This utility allows you to remove objects that you no longer need in your repository. You can remove databases, initialization blocks, physical catalogs, and variables.

To remove unused physical objects

1. From the Tools menu, choose Utilities > Remove Unused Physical Objects, and then click Execute.
2. In the Remove Unused Physical Objects dialog box, from the Type drop-down list, select the type of object.
3. In the list of objects, verify that only the objects that you want to remove are checked.

   Below the list of objects, the number of checked and the total number of objects appears.

4. To remove the checked objects, click Yes.
5. To cancel, click No.
