Deleting a Repository
Before you can delete the Repository, move all Volumes from the Repository and Confirm into another location. Any Volumes in a move to the Repository will be placed in a move to the Initial Repository.
To delete a Repository, right-click on the Repository that needs to be deleted and select Delete.
If the Repository you are attempting to delete is the current Default Repository, you will receive a popup confirming you want to reset the Default value, click Yes to continue.
Click Yes to the Confirm Delete popup.
In older releases, any Repository set as the default (where Volumes are added to when a Target Repository is not specified) cannot be deleted until the dependancy is removed.
To remove the default setting, right-click the Media Type in the Customer Tree and select Properties.
On the Options tab, change the setting Default Repository to <No Selection>, or another Repository, and click Save.
The Repository may now be deleted by right-clicking and selecting Delete and OK to warning dialog.
