Local fix

Delete the resource via wsadmin:

AdminConfig.remove('(path_to_resources.xml|resources.xml#CMPConn
ectorFactory_yyy)')

AdminConfig.remove('(path_to_resources.xml|resources.xml#DataSou
rce_zzz)')

AdminConfig.save()

Sync1
=AdminControl.completeObjectName('type=NodeSync,node=node,*')

AdminControl.invoke(Sync1, 'sync')

Where path_to_resources.xml is the path to the resources.xml
file at the scope for which the datsource was defined.  For
example at the server level this would be:

cells/cell_name/nodes/node_name/servers/server_name

yyy and zzz are the identifer numbers for the specific
DataSource and CMPConnectorFactory which are to be deleted.
