Deleting a Realm

You can delete a realm from an Oracle ACFS file system. After a realm is deleted, access to all objects that were part of the realm is reverted to the state prior to their addition to the realm. These objects are not subjected to security and encryption that were enabled on the realm.

To delete a realm, follow these steps:

  1. From the Oracle ASM home page, select the ASM Cluster File System tab to display the mount points in the cluster file system.

    For information about the Oracle ASM home page and how to access that page, see "Accessing the Oracle Automatic Storage Management Home Page".

  2. Click the Mount Point that contains the realm you want to delete. The Oracle ACFS home page is displayed for this mount point.

  3. Click the Security/Encryption tab.

  4. In the Security section, click Realms. The list of realms in the mount point is displayed.

  5. Select the realm you want to delete and click Delete.
