DELETE POLICYSET (Delete a policy set)

Use this command to delete a policy set. When you delete a policy set, all management classes and copy groups that belong to the policy set are also deleted.

The ACTIVE policy set in a policy domain cannot be deleted. You can replace the contents of the ACTIVE policy set by activating a different policy set. Otherwise, the only way to remove the ACTIVE policy set is to delete the policy domain that contains the policy set.

You can delete the predefined STANDARD policy set. However, if you later reinstall the Tivoli® Storage Manager server, the process restores all STANDARD policy objects.

Privilege class

To issue this command, you must have system privilege, unrestricted policy privilege, or restricted policy privilege for the policy domain to which the policy set belongs.
