  • If you expand the Programmability \ Stored Procedures section under the Dir Database you will see the 'DeleteVaultStore' sp. If you view that you will see what tables are affected.

  • You can always maunally remove the partition via the EV directory database \ partitionentry table in SQL. Just look for the row that contains the entryid as above and then right click and delete. If there are any FK restraints then you will need to delete them first. PLease ensure you take a backup of the database first.

  • screenshoot is attached.

    Percy, but this is not just ptn, if this is just ptn i can remove from partition entry table you are right but vs group +vs+ptn delete in sql i dont know the shortcut method. because as you know vs creates new db on the sql management consele,.

  • May sound trivial, but have you tried rebooting the server and trying again? :)

  • Great Info,

    Helped me getting rid of a Vault Store and Partition that got stuck in "being deleted".

     

     

  • Hi,

    I would argue that the information provided by the forum members provided the resolution rather than the steps carried out by yourself. If you hadn't known the tables then you wouldn't have known what to delete.

  • I find a quick restart of the storage service free's up the partition/store to be deleted. If that doesnt work, a full reboot should do the trick (as said)
