Defining the Target Configuration › Model Definition › Delete a Model

Delete a Model

The principle of Referential Integrity (RI) applies to the function of deleting a model. When a model is deleted, all related business systems are also deleted. However, the script associated with the model is not deleted.

Note: If you delete the wrong model definition, you must reenter each element of a deleted model definition separately.

The delete process removes the records from the IT configuration database, but does not remove any data sets. Your definition still exists, but it is not identified to the IT. To reclaim this disk space, you must delete the files from the disk.

Follow these steps:

1. With the IT window displayed, select Option 1.

   The Installation Tool window is displayed.

2. Select Option 3, Maintain Configuration Information.

   The Selection List screen is displayed.

3. Select the correct target configuration and press Enter.

   The Target Definition screen is displayed.

4. Press F2 to display the Selection List screen.
5. Select the model configuration you want to delete and press Enter.

   The Model Definition screen is displayed.

6. Press F10 to delete the model definition.

   The system responds with the following message:

   Press ENTER to confirm delete request or F12 to cancel delete request
   

7. Verify that the model definition displayed is the one to delete and press Enter.

   The system responds by displaying the Selection List screen.

8. Press F3 to display the Installation Tool window.
