Remove applications

Only cluster and consumer administrators can remove (in the process, unregister) an application.

About this task

When you remove an application through the cluster management console, the application is unregistered, the associated service package removed from the repository and from IBM® Spectrum Symphony, the associated consumer deleted.

Removing the application:
  • Terminates all associated jobs and tasks
  • Releases all resources (including CPUs, service instance managers, and service instances) allocated to the application
  • Unregisters the application, and
  • Deletes the application profile.
Note: You can also use the soamunreg command to remove (unregister) an application. For example:
soamunreg SampleAppCPP
