Clear Batch & Output Management metadata

You can clear all Batch & Output Management metadata from Communications Manager Repository using the ClearOutputManagementMetadata command-line tool. It is located at: <deploy root>\CommunicationsManager\Programs\<version>\Management\Instance.

Parameters

The tool uses the following parameters.

Parameter Required / Optional Description
Instance!Number Required Specifies the number of the instance for which the management task should be applied.

For Docker, it is always set to 1.

Repository!User Optional

Only required when the LDAP mode is disabled.

Specifies the name of a Communications Manager Repository user with the "Allow login as Admin" right.
Repository!Password Optional

Only required when the LDAP mode is disabled.

Specifies the password of the Communications Manager Repository user.
Repository!Token Optional

Specifies the logon token generated with Communication Manager Designer. For more information, see "Log in to Communications Manager Designer and Communications Manager Designer for Windows" in Help for Communications Manager Designer.
Report!File Optional Specifies the name of the report file written by the management action. The use of this file depends on the specific task, as described in this chapter. If omitted, the default value is output-management-metadata-report.txt.

If the path or file name given in this parameter already exists, it is overwritten.

The resulted report file contains a list of Document Pack Templates that refer to the Batch & Output Management metadata. If no such Document Pack Templates exist, the tool reports that the metadata is cleared successfully.
