Remove DTR workspace

Former Member

Dear all,

I am trying to remove some unused track, and after a few research I find that I need to:

1) Delete the track in CMS

2) Delete the DTR workspace by DTR command line tool

At step 2, when I try to execute the DELETEWORKSPACE command, I always getting the error u201CCould not retrieve folder itemu201D

I checked the DTR and find that the workspace is still exists, I find the following line in details screen:

WORKSPACE : /ws/ESSSP13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/dev/active

So I tried the following:

dtr deleteworkspace -w /ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/dev/active

dtr deleteworkspace -w //ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/dev/active

dtr deleteworkspace -w //ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/dev/active/

dtr deleteworkspace -w /ws/ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/dev/active

dtr deleteworkspace -w //ws/ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/dev/active

dtr deleteworkspace -w //ws/ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/dev/active/

And all give the same error u201CCould not retrieve folder itemu201D

Regards

Bill

Hi,

can you please try the DTR Console instead of the DTR cmd line tool?

Please review the document:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/46/652a652a717183e10000000a114a6b/content.htm

(in case you have problem with the DTR client, then use this version:

#1377679 u2013 DTR Console "replicate command" don't work (http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1377679)

! Of course your case has nothing to do with replication, but this note includes a fixed version of the DTR console. No need to deploy the attached sda file, just rename it to ZIP, extract it and it is ready to use right away)

Some additional information to the delete command:

Delete workspace:

Deletes the workspace "/ws/dir/wsp". The workspace can only be deleted

if the following preconditions are fullfilled:

1. there are no open activity and propagation lists in the workspace

2. there are no dematerialized propagations lists in the workspace

You can use the force option ('-force') to forcefully delete a

workspace.

you need to connect to the DTR client first using the 'connect' command,

e.g. connect <host>:<port> <nwdi admin user> <pass> <sessionID like ABC>

delete /ws/ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/dev/active/

delete /ws/ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/dev/inactive/

delete /ws/ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/cons/active/

delete /ws/ESSS13/sap.com_SAP_ESS/cons/inactive/

Can you please let me know whether this way you face the same problem?

Thanks and Regards,

Ervin

Hi,

if you don't use the ESSS13 track any more, then of course yes, you can remove the remaining folders related to it.

Best Regards,
