Deleting script packages

Delete a script package from the catalog, if it is not in use with any virtual system patterns.

Before you begin

To complete this task, you must either have the Create new catalog content and be granted all access to the script package, or have the Workload resources administration role with full permissions.

Script packages that are in use cannot be deleted. Before you delete a script package, ensure that it is no longer needed by the pattern or the cell with which it is associated.
