Unregister a Provider

Unregister a registered provider if you do not want to run reports against it, search for objects on it, or create a policy.

Note: A provider cannot be deleted if it is assigned to a Resource Pool. Remove your providers from Resource Pools before deleting.

Best Practice: Ensure the provider you unregister is not associated with any defined policy.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

Review the properties of the provider to determine if you want to unregister it. See Edit a Provider.

Note: If an associated provider is unregistered before, during, or after a Copy Data or Use Data job executes, the job fails with a task framework error. If the unregistered providers are re-registered in ECX, new Copy Data or Use Data policies must be defined for the providers.

To unregister a provider:

Click the Configure tab. On the Views pane, select Providers . The Provider Browser opens.
In the Provider Browser pane, browse to the desired provider and select it.
Right-click the provider. Then click Unregister . A confirmation dialog box opens.
Confirm unregistration. The provider is unregistered.
