Use this directive to delete a Subordinate Reference entity. Syntax: DELETE DSA SUBORDINATE REFERENCE <name>
1 – Errors
The Delete directive returns one of the following errors: REASON: Also a Naming Context DESCRIPTION: The Naming Context entity of the same name must be deleted first. You cannot delete the Subordinate Reference entity because it coexists with a Naming Context entity. To delete the Subordinate Reference entity first would leave the DIT improperly structured. REASON: Also a Shadow Naming Context DESCRIPTION: The shadow Naming Context with the same name must be removed first. You cannot delete the Subordinate Reference entity because it coexists with a shadow Naming Context entity. You need to reconfigure the supplier DSA for the shadow naming context so that this DSA is no longer a consumer DSA for it. Then initiate replication so that this DSA removes its copy of the naming context. You can then remove the Subordinate Reference entity. The response identifies the name of the shadow naming context and its master DSA. REASON: Not Master DESCRIPTION: Cannot delete a shadow Subordinate Reference. The Subordinate Reference entity is a shadow copy that has been created by replication. The DSA does not own the entity and cannot therefore delete it. You need to reconfigure the supplier DSA so that this DSA is no longer a consumer DSA for the specified naming context. Then initiate replication so that this DSA removes its copy of the Naming Context, including the Subordinate Reference entity. The response identifies the name of the shadow naming context and its master DSA. REASON: Has Subordinates DESCRIPTION: The DSA holds entries or entities subordinate to the entity being deleted. The Subordinate Reference entity has subordinates and therefore cannot be deleted. You need to delete all subordinate entries and entities first. REASON: Alias Entry DESCRIPTION: Alias entry prevents deletion. The identifier you specified for the Subordinate Reference entity is an alias name, not a distinguished name. The DSA does not support the use of alias names when deleting entities. The response shows the name of the alias entry. REASON: Wrong State DESCRIPTION: The DSA entity is not in the correct state. The DSA entity must be in state ON, ENABLING, DISABLING or OFF when you delete a Subordinate Reference entity.
