If you have made changes to your company and no longer require the use of a repository within your default federated repository, you can delete the repository from your configuration.

1. Run the ConfigEngine.sh -profileName profile_root wp-query-repository task, located in the profiles/wp_profile/ConfigEngine directory to list the names and types of configured repositories. Note: profile_root is the name of the WebSphere Application Server profile where WebSphere Portal Express is installed; for example, wp_profile.
2. Use a text editor to open the wkplc.properties file, located in the profiles/wp_profile/ConfigEngine/properties directory.
3. Enter the following parameters in the wkplc.properties file under VMM Delete federated repository properties:

   1. For federated.delete.baseentry, type the name of the base entry you want to delete from the default realm. Important: If the base entry exists within the non-default realms, you must manually delete the base entry from those realms before deleting it from the default realm.
   2. For federated.delete.id, type the ID for the repository you want to delete from the federated repository configuration.
4. Save your changes to the wkplc.properties file.
5. Run the ConfigEngine.sh -profileName profile_root wp-delete-repository task, located in the profiles/wp_profile/ConfigEngine directory to delete a federated repository. Note: profile_root is the name of the WebSphere Application Server profile where WebSphere Portal Express is installed; for example, wp_profile.
6. Perform the following steps to stop and restart the server1 and WebSphere_Portal servers:

   1. Open a command prompt and change to the wp_profile_root/bin directory.
   2. Enter the stopServer server1 -profileName profile_root -user admin_userid -password admin_password command to stop the WebSphere Application Server. Note: profile_root is the name of the WebSphere Application Server profile where WebSphere Portal Express is installed; for example, wp_profile.
   3. Enter the stopServer WebSphere_Portal -profileName profile_root -user admin_userid -password admin_password command to stop the WebSphere Portal Express server.
   4. Enter the startServer server1 -profileName profile_root command.
   5. Enter the startServer WebSphere_Portal -profileName profile_root command.
