Configuring Xprint V7.0 Administering supervisors
6.16.4 Deleting a supervisor
With the command xpdel -spv you can delete any supervisor you administer.
A supervisor with the status ACTIVE cannot be deleted. Therefore you
must first deactivate the supervisor. You can also not delete a supervisor
which is referenced by other objects, e.g. a printer.
To delete a supervisor from the Xprint V7.0 system, proceed as follows:
● Deactivate the supervisor:
xpchange -spv [selection] -st NOT_ACTIVE
For selection you can either specify a list of the supervisors to be deactivated,
or you can use the -scl “selection_criteria_list” option (see section
“Selection criteria list” on page 266 in the Appendix) to define a list of criteria
according to which the relevant supervisors are selected. If selection is not
specified, all supervisors are deactivated.
● Check whether the supervisor is referenced by any other objects:
xpshow -spv supervisor_name -diR
Cancel any existing references. How to do this is described in the sections
dealing with assigning a supervisor to the relevant object (e.g. to a printer).
● Delete the supervisor:
xpdel -spv selection
Examples
– To deactivate and delete the supervisor delaware:
xpchange -spv delaware -st NOT_ACTIVE
xpdel -spv delaware
– To deactivate and delete all supervisors with the comment “please_delete”:
xpchange -spv -scl "-ca please_delete" -st NOT_ACTIVE
xpdel -spv -scl "-ca please_delete"
