-deleteProjectAreaResources

Repotools command that permanently deletes project resources including their history and revisions.

Purpose

While it is possible to delete a resource in the Jazz Foundation Server storage service, deletion results in the archiving of the resource. When a resource is archived, all revisions of that resource continue to be accessible as part of history of the URL of that resource. The deleteProjectAreaResources command enables the permanent deletion of all resources and their history, including revisions for a project area. Permanently deleting archived resources can gain database space and improve performance.
Remember: The command requires that the server be shutdown beforehand. The command will not automatically trigger a -reindex. Performing a reindex is recommended if the force parameter is specified.
Attribute Description Required Default
contextURL URL of the project area. Yes
force If the force parameter is specified with value "true", then all resources associated to the project area, including resources that have not been archived, will be permanently deleted. No false
teamserver.properties Path to the teamserver.properties file. Yes conf/jazz/teamserver.properties
noPrompt When the noPrompt parameter is used, the command will not prompt the administrative user to confirm the delete. No
