## delete-resource-ref(1)

#### NAME

delete-resource-ref– removes a reference to a resource

#### SYNOPSIS

`delete-resource-ref` ––user admin_user [––passwordfile filename] [––host host_name] [––port port_number] [––secure|`–s`] [––terse=false] [––echo=false] [––interactive=true] [––help] [––target target] reference_name

#### DESCRIPTION

The `delete-resource-ref` command removes a reference from a cluster or an unclustered server instance to a resource (for example, a JDBC resource). This effectively results in the removal of the resource from the JNDI tree of the targeted instance or cluster.

The target instance or instances making up the cluster need not be running or available for this command to succeed. If one or more instances are not available, they will no longer load the resource in the JNDI tree the next time they start.

Removal of the reference does not result in removal of the resource from the domain. The resource is removed only by the `delete` command for that resource (for example, `delete-jdbc-resource`).

This command is supported in remote mode only.

#### OPTIONS

`–u` `––user`

  The authorized domain application server administrative username.

`–w` `––password`

  The `––password` option is deprecated. Use `––passwordfile` instead.

`––passwordfile`

  This option replaces the `–– password` option. Using the `––password` option on the command line or through the environment is deprecated. The `––passwordfile` option specifies the name of a file containing the password entries in a specified format. The entry for the password must have the AS_ADMIN_ prefix followed by the password name in capital letters. For example, to specify the domain application server password, use an entry with the following format: `AS_ADMIN_PASSWORD`=password, where password is the actual administrator password. Other passwords that can be specified include AS_ADMIN_MAPPEDPASSWORD, AS_ADMIN_USERPASSWORD, AS_ADMIN_SAVEDMASTERPASSWORD, AS_ADMIN_MQPASSWORD, AS_ADMIN_ALIASPASSWORD, and so on.

`–H` `––host`

  The machine name where the domain application server is running. The default value is localhost.

`–p` `––port`

  The port number of the domain application server listening for administration requests. The default port number for Enterprise Edition is 4849.

`–s` `––secure`

  If set to true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the domain application server.

`–t` `––terse`

  Indicates that any output data must be very concise, typically avoiding human-friendly sentences and favoring well-formatted data for consumption by a script. Default is false.

`–e` `––echo`

  Setting to true will echo the command line statement on the standard output. Default is false.

`–I` `––interactive`

  If set to true (default), only the required password options are prompted.

`–h` `––help`

  Displays the help text for the command.

`––target`

  Specifies the target from which you are removing the resource reference. Valid values are

  - `server`, which removes the resource reference from the default server instance `server` and is the default value

  - cluster_name, which removes the resource reference from every server instance in the cluster

  - instance_name, which removes the resource reference from the named unclustered server instance

#### OPERANDS

reference_name

  The name or JNDI name of the resource.

#### EXAMPLES

##### Example 1 Using the delete-resource-ref command

The following command removes a reference to the JMS destination resource `jms/Topic` on the unclustered server instance `NewServer`.

    asadmin> delete-resource-ref --user admin2
    --passwordfile passwords.txt --target NewServer jms/Topic
    Command delete-resource-ref executed successfully.

#### EXIT STATUS

0

  command executed successfully

1

  error in executing the command

#### SEE ALSO

create-resource-ref(1), list-resource-refs(1)
