Delete Entities Using omcli

You can delete a previously added entity using the omcli delete_entity command as shown below.

<AGENT_BASE_DIR>/agent_inst/bin/omcli delete_entity agent FILENAME

Where FILENAME is the name of the file that contains the entity definition to be deleted.

Example

Say you want to delete the Oracle WebLogic Server domain that you had previously added with the following JSON file: omc_weblogic_domain.json.

Run the following command to delete this WebLogic Server domain:

<AGENT_BASE_DIR>/agent_inst/bin/omcli delete_entity agent omc_weblogic_domain.json

Note:

Cascading deletion is not supported. The JSON input for the delete command must include all entities and their sub-entities to be deleted.
