Delete Host Switch
HSW_DEL
To delete a host switch, click the Delete host switch option from the Host Switches drop-down menu. A list of all host switches previously added to the database is displayed in the Functionality area of the screen. However, if a host switch was previously selected, the information for that particular host switch will be displayed in the Switch field.
This function allows the administrator to delete an existing host switch from the database. This process is considered a critical delete and must have two confirmations prior to the deletion of any data. This procedure ensures that no valuable information is deleted unintentionally. If the administrator’s intention to delete the host switch is confirmed both times, the selected host switch and all related information will be deleted. The information deleted is not recoverable.
To complete the first step in the deletion process, the administrator types the word DELETE just as it appears in the Enter Confirmation field. Click the OK button to continue.
If the administrator decides not to delete the host switch during the first step in the deletion process, clicking the Cancel button will display the Cancel Confirmation dialog box. Click the OK button and the administrator returns to the Omnixx Console Main Menu screen. Note: The host switch identifier is still entered in the Switch field.
The second step is another response to a confirmation box. In this box, the word DeLeTe must be typed into the Enter Confirmation field exactly as shown, with every other letter capitalized. Click the OK button to continue.
If the administrator decides not to delete the host switch during the second step in the deletion process, clicking the Cancel button will display the Cancel Confirmation dialog box. Click the OK button and the administrator returns to the Omnixx Console Main Menu screen. Note: The host switch identifier is still entered in the Switch field.
If the deletion is successful, the Delete Host-Switch Confirmation message is displayed. Click the OK button to continue. Note: The host-switch identifier is deleted from the Switch field in the Omnixx Console Summary area.
By clicking the OK button, the Delete Host Switch Complete message is displayed.
After successfully deleting a host switch from the database, the administrator clicks the OK button once again and returns to the Omnixx Console Host Switches Functions screen.
