Delete policy sets using the admin console
Overview
Use the admin console to delete the default policy sets or the application specific policy sets that we have created.If deleting an attached policy set, stop all applications and the associated endpoints or operations, then detach and delete the policy set.
If the policy set is unattached, then you do not need to detach the policy set before deleting it.
Delete policy sets
- From the admin console, click...
Services | Policy sets | Application policy sets
...or...
Services | Policy sets | System policy sets
- Click the box in the Select column next to the policy set to delete.
- Click Delete.
- Verify to delete this policy set.
Example
The ABC WSI RSP policy set no longer meets the needs, having been supplanted by the DEF WSI RSP policy set. We have detached all the applications and endpoints from the ABC WSI RSP policy set and you want to delete the policy set. Click...
Services | Policy sets | Application policy sets
...and find the ABC WSI RSP policy set in the listing.
Select the ABC WSI RSP policy set and click Delete.
Confirm to delete the policy set and it is removed from the listing of policy sets.
Restart the applications that you detached the ABC WSI RSP policy from, and we have successfully deleted the policy set.
Alternatively, depending on the use case, we can reassign the attachment to another resource before deleting the policy set. Make a copy of the policy set that we are about to delete, then attach it later to the application or service artifact.
You can now delete the policy set.
Next steps
If we have detached and then deleted a policy set from an application, restart all affected applications to pick up this change.
