Using the RuleSet Delete tool

Use the RuleSet Delete tool to delete an entire ruleset or a specific version of a RuleSet, or to restore a RuleSet previously deleted with this tool.

Completing the form

To delete a ruleset:

  1. Select the ruleset to be deleted in the Original RuleSet field.
  2. Optionally, select a ruleset version to be deleted in the RuleSet Version field.
  3. Click the Delete button to begin processing. This may take several minutes.
  4. The system creates a backup of the ruleset in PRPC's explicit temporary directory. A status area shows progress and the results of the operation.
  5. If errors occur, click the Total Number of Errors link in the lower right corner of the display form to see any error messages. This list can't easily be accessed after you close the form; print the list so you can research and address the errors.
  6. Click the Close button to exit.

Restoring the Ruleset

The system saves the deleted ruleset in a file called "RuleSetName_RuleSetVersion_DELETE.zip" in PRPC's temporary directory.

To recover this ruleset, enter the ruleset and version into the Delete a RuleSet form and click Restore.
