To Delete an OS Distribution

An OS distribution cannot be deleted if it is associated with a deployed OS profile. A deployed OS profile is a profile that is currently being installed on a provisionable server.

Before You Begin

Delete all of the OS profiles that are associated with the OS distribution. This includes deleting the default OS profile that was created when the OS distribution was copied. An OS profile cannot be deleted while it is being deployed; it may be removed after the deployment is completed. See To Delete an OS Profile for instructions.

Steps

1. Log in to the N1 System Manager.

   See To Access the N1 System Manager Command Line for details.

2. Type the following command:

   N1-ok> delete os os

   The distribution is deleted. See delete os in Sun N1 System Manager 1.1 Command Line Reference Manual for details.

3. View the available OS distributions.

   N1-ok> show os all

   The deleted OS distribution should not appear in the output.
