Deleting a Device

FlexNet Operations 2014

Devices can be deleted from the Manage Devices page. Only client and server devices (not served clients) with a current state of obsolete or test can be deleted and, once deleted, these devices cannot be recovered. (Active devices cannot be deleted.) Also, any add-ons assigned to the device return to the entitlement pool when the device is deleted.

Note: Served client devices are removed from FlexNet Operations when their parent FNE server is deleted. It is also possible to clear the served clients associated with a server by resetting the server’s sync data. See Resetting Sync Data.

To delete a device

1. On the Manage Devices page, click the tab for the type of device to delete. Choose either Clients or Servers. (Served clients cannot be deleted directly.)
2. Select the device you want to delete from the devices list.
3. Click Delete. This opens a confirmation window that asks you to confirm the deletion.
4. Click OK to confirm.

Note: To delete an active device, you must first change its state to obsolete.
