[NOTE]
====
Resources are always created for a domain as a whole but are only
active for targets for which a `<resource-ref>` has been created using
the `--target` option when the resource was created. This means that
deleting a resource only deletes the `<resource-ref>` element for the
specified `--target`, and does not delete the resource from the domain
as a whole unless `domain` is specified as the `--target` for the
deletion.
====

  `server`;;
    Deletes the resource from the default server instance. This is the
    default value
  `domain`;;
    Deletes the resource from the domain
  cluster_name;;
    Deletes the resource for every server instance in the cluster
  instance_name;;
    Deletes the resource from the specified server instance
