deleteInvalidTaskTemplate.py script

Use the deleteInvalidTaskTemplate.py administrative script to delete, from the database, human task templates that are no longer valid.

The deleteInvalidTaskTemplate.py script removes from the database those templates, and all objects that belong to them, that are not contained in any corresponding valid application in the WebSphere® configuration repository. This situation can occur if deploying an application was canceled or the application was not stored in the configuration repository by the user. These templates usually have no impact. They are not shown in Business Process Choreographer Explorer.

You cannot use this script to remove templates of valid applications from the database. This condition is checked and a ConfigurationError exception is thrown if the corresponding application is valid.

Prerequisites

The following conditions must be met:

Run the script in the connected mode, that is, the application server must be running.
You must have either operator or deployer authority.
If Business Process Choreographer is configured on a cluster, then at least one cluster member must be running.
If you are not working with the default profile, use the wsadmin -profileName profile option to specify the profile.

Location

The deleteInvalidTaskTemplate.py administrative script is in the Business Process Choreographer admin directory.

Parameters

-node nodeName: The name of the node where Business Process Choreographer is configured. This is optional when specifying the server name. The default is the local node.
