5.4.1 Editing registered items in the repository

You can edit selected information for repository items after the registration process is complete.

Editing the name of a repository item does not change the associated file or directory names, and
changes only the name that the user interface displays. You can change the path to a remotely
hosted repository item.

To edit an item in the repository, follow these steps:
1.

Select the following menu item from the Insight Control user interface:

Options

→IC-Linux→Manage Repository

2.

Select the item you want to edit and select Edit.

3.

Change the item information.

4.

Select Save.

5.

Select OK at the bottom right of the screen to apply the change.

6.

Select OK again to refresh the screen and see your change.

5.4.2 Deleting registered items from the repository

NOTE:

Deleting an item from the repository does not delete the corresponding directory in the

/opt/repository

directory nor does it delete the files that you might have copied to that

directory. If you want to delete or move the directory and files, delete or move them manually after
you first perform the following procedure.

To remove an item from the repository, follow these steps:
1.

Select the following menu item from the Insight Control user interface:

Options

→IC-Linux→Manage Repository

2.

Select the item or items you want to delete and select Delete.

TIP:

If you plan to retain a supported or custom OS, never delete its related boot image.

Doing so causes the definition of the OS to become invalid. The only way to remedy this is
to also delete the corresponding OS from the repository and reregister it.

3.

Select OK to confirm the deletion or select Cancel to stop the deletion when the following is
displayed:

Are you sure you want to delete the following items from the repository?

4.

Select OK at the bottom right of the screen to complete the deletion process. The following
message appears:

The selected items have been deleted

5.

Select OK again to refresh the screen and remove the item from the table.
