Deletes pluggable databases (PDBs).

Format

emcli delete_pluggable_database
      -cdbTargetName="CDB_of_target_PDBs"
      -cdbTargetType="CDB_target_type"
      -cdbHostCreds="CDB_host_credentials"
      -cdbTargetCreds="CDB_target_credentials"
      -pdbName="PDB_names"
      [-cdbHostPrivCreds="CDB_host_privileged_credentials"]
      [-ignoreStorageWarnings]

[ ] indicates that the parameter is optional.

Options

  • cdbTargetName

    Target container database (CDB) that contains the PDBs that you want to delete. Ensure that the target CDB you specify is a valid target in Enterprise Manager.

  • cdbTargetType

    Database type of the target CDB, which can be oracle_database, rac_database, and so on.

  • cdbHostCreds

    Credentials for the host on which the target CDB is located.

  • cdbTargetCreds

    Credentials for the target CDB.

  • pdbName

    Names of the PDBs that you want to delete. Ensure that you separate the names using a comma.

  • cdbHostPrivCreds

    Privileged credentials for the host on which the Snap Clone storage mount points are located. Note that this option is required only if you are deleting PDBs that were created using Snap Clone.

  • ignoreStorageWarnings

    Ignore any storage warnings that may be generated while deleting PDBs that were created using Snap Clone.

Examples

This example deletes the test_pdb PDB, which is a part of test_CDB, an Oracle single-instance CDB, using HOST_CREDS as the CDB host credentials and DB_CREDS as the CDB target credentials:

emcli delete_pluggable_database -cdbTargetName=test_database -cdbTargetType=oracle_database -pdbName=test_pdb -cdbHostCreds=HOST_CREDS -cdbTargetCreds=DB_CREDS
