Delete a galaxy

Deleting and restoring a galaxy requires that there be no clients connected to it. In a multi-galaxy environment, any deployed browsing service is considered a connection.

The following preparatory steps occur prior to initiating the galaxy delete operation:

1. Go to the IDE backstage by selecting Galaxy from the menu bar, then select Configure.

2. From the Configure page, select Services.

   

3. The Configure Services editor opens. Use the editor to undeploy and delete all service instances. The Service instances created for a galaxy are not deleted when the galaxy is deleted.

   

4. Undeploy all browsing services associated with the galaxy being deleted. If clients are connected, the delete operation is aborted and all browsing services that were previously undeployed are redeployed.

If the delete operation can proceed, all services, including the browsing services, are deleted.
