Deleting adapters

After an adapter is deleted, all data related to that adapter is deleted and cannot be restored.

To delete adapters

Perform the following procedure to delete adapters.

1. Expand the Adapters folder.
2. Expand the adapter type, select, and then right-click the adapter type to be deleted.
3. Select Delete.
4. On the Confirm Deletion screen, click OK to delete the selected adapter or click Cancel to exit without deleting the selected adapter.

5. When you click OK, the deletion in progress message is displayed.

   Note

   • After you edit or delete an adapter, the system might take several minutes to respond if sub-processes are still running. As a workaround, you can manually stop the process:
     • (Windows) Through Windows Task Manager, end the ovcodautil.exe process.
     • (UNIX) Run the kill ovcodautil command.
   • If you delete an adapter instance that was created by using the automated workflow feature, mark the agent as disconnected and then delete the adapter instance. You can reconnect the agent immediately after deleting the adapter instance.
   • Before re-adding a deleted adapter, restart the Integration Service. Create the adapter by disconnecting and reconnecting the Integration Service in the Administration Console.
