This instruction describes how to delete a backup.

2   Procedure

2.1   Delete Backup

Prerequisites

• No documents are required.
• No tools are required.
• The following condition must apply:
  • No other backup operation is in progress.
  • The backup type is known.
  • The name of the backup to delete is known.
  • An Ericsson Command-Line Interface (ECLI) session in Exec mode is in progress.

Steps

1. Navigate to the BrmBackupManager managed object, for example:

   >dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,BrM=1,BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA

2. Start the delete operation, for example:

   (BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA)>deleteBackup PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140428_175907

   The system returns output true or false.

   Note:  

   To cancel the deletion of the backup, type cancelCurrentAction. If the delete operation is in the Prepare or Commit phase, the cancel is rejected.

   
   
3. Verify that the backup was successfully deleted:

   (BrmBackupManager=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140428_175907)>show progressReport

   After a backup is successfully deleted, the progress report shows the following:

   [...] actionName="DELETE" additionalInfo="Delete Backup for PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140428_175907:⇒ Succeeded" progressInfo="" progressPercentage=100 result=SUCCESS resultInfo="PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140428_175907 was deleted ⇒ successfully." state=FINISHED [...]

If an error occurs during the execution of the operation, attribute reportProgress shows result=FAILURE, and resultInfo shows the cause of the failure.
