You (an administrator) can delete entire Datasets or individual Snapshots. Domino recommends the following process for Dataset and Snapshot deletion.
-
The user who owns the Dataset marks it for deletion, excluding it from any new executions that start. Non-administrator users can never permanently delete a Dataset or Snapshots.
-
You (the administrator) then delete the Dataset or Snapshot, if appropriate.
-
Go to Admin > Manage resources > Datasets.
-
Click the Datasets tab or the Snapshots tab.
-
At the end of the row for the item to delete, click the three vertical dots and then click Delete.
If you confirm the action, the system permanently deletes the item. If the action was initiated by mistake, you can still recover a dataset or snapshot before the delete grace period (
com.cerebro.domino.dataset.graceTimeForDeletion) expires.

Note
|
The delete confirmation identifies the projects using a given Dataset or Snapshot. If you delete Datasets that are used by several projects, it can be disruptive because users will no longer have access to this data. Consider notifying users when you think the impact of the deletion might be significant. |
When a Dataset or a Snapshot is deleted, it will no longer be available for future executions. Executions that are in progress will also be affected if they attempt to read or write to the dataset that is deleted.

Tip
| You can Delete all marked datasets or Delete all marked snapshots and perform bulk delete confirmations. You can also sort the tables by status to easily find all Datasets of Snapshots marked for deletion. |
