| NAME |
| delete-instance - deletes a GlassFish Server instance |
| |
| SYNOPSIS |
| delete-instance [--help] instance-name |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| The delete-instance subcommand deletes a GlassFish Server instance. |
| This subcommand requires the secure shell (SSH) to be configured on the host |
| where the domain administration server (DAS) is running and on the host |
| that is represented by the node where the instance resides. |
| |
| Note |
| +----------------------------------------+ |
| | SSH is not required | |
| | if the instance resides on a | |
| | node of type CONFIG that | |
| | represents the local host. A | |
| | node of type CONFIG is not | |
| | enabled for remote | |
| | communication over SSH. | |
| +----------------------------------------+ |
| |
| You may run this subcommand from any host that can contact the DAS. |
| |
| The subcommand can delete any GlassFish Server instance, regardless of |
| how the instance was created. For example, this subcommand can delete |
| an instance that was created by using the create-local-instance(1) |
| subcommand. |
| |
| The instance that is being deleted must not be running. Otherwise, an |
| error occurs. |
| |
| The subcommand deletes an instance by performing the following actions: |
| |
| * Removing the instance from the configuration of the domain |
| administration server (DAS) |
| |
| * Deleting the instance's files from file system |
| |
| If the instance that is being deleted is the only instance that is |
| using the node directory, that directory is also removed. |
| |
| If a standalone instance is deleted, the instance's standalone |
| configuration is also deleted. A standalone instance refers to a |
| configuration that is named instance-name-config to which no other |
| clusters or unclustered instances refer. |
| |
| This subcommand is supported in remote mode only. |
