Deleting document types from the repositories

If a document type is deleted from a Design Center Project, and the Project is redeployed, the document type is not automatically removed from the OpenText StreamServe repositories.

In Control Center, you can manually delete the removed document type from the enterprise repository and from the runtime repository.

Note:

Deleting a document type from the enterprise and the runtime repositories does not affect the document type in the Collector archive.

Prerequisites

•	Make sure you have a complete backup of the runtime repository.

•	For a list of the required preparations before you can delete a document type, see Deleting document types in enterprise and runtime repository in the Document types and metadata documentation.

At the preparations, you can use Database Administration Tool. You can launch this tool directly from Control Center by right-clicking the application domain and selecting Launch Database Administration Tool.

To delete a document type from the enterprise repository

1	Right-click the Site node and select Manage Document Types. The Manage Document Types dialog box opens.

2	Select the document type you want to delete and click Delete.
