...
Even objects under retention will be deleted. However, if binary content files are protected by an archive-internal retention, they cannot be deleted via this command.
While the command runs continuously, handling each the deletion of DMS objects is performed step by step. Each day between the first object creation date and the current day separately. Each date is separately processed. Then again, each day is splitted split in a variable number of time periods, so such that the amount of objects to delete be deleted in each period is approximately equal to the number of fetch-size. Then for For each period, the command is going tofollows this procedure:
...
- Process all current
...
- object versions:
- Delete each repository item
...
- , i.e., binary content files. (individual requests)
- Delete the objects in the Elasticsearch index. (batch request)
- Delete all database rows. (batch request)
...
- Process all old
...
- versions of DMS objects:
- Delete each repository item
...
- , i.e., binary content files. (individual requests)
...
- Delete all database rows. (batch request)
After finishing If one of the deletion sub-processes (in repository, search index or database) fails for a DMS object, the problem is logged and the deletion continues with the other sub-processes nevertheless.
After all time periods for one of a day are finished, all audit entires are going to be deleted.entries of this day are deleted. Then, the procedure is repeated for the next day until the current date has been processed. Depending on the number of objects for the tenant, this process can take a long time. While running the task, the process progress is continuously displayed including an estimated completion time.
After handling processing all days, as a last step, the tenants tenant's configuration is going to be deleted.

| Parameter | Argument Type | Description | Required | Default | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
--tenant <arg> | string | Tenant for which all data should be deleted. | yes | - | --tenant default |
| string | Target directory for result log. | no | - | --target-directory C:\Users\myusername\ymtenantdeletionlog |
--fetch-size <arg> | int | Fetch size, used to split days in time periods. Each period contains approximate contains approximately as many elements as the specified by The value must be at least 100 and not bigger than 10000than 10,000. | no | 1000 | --fetch-size 500 |
--what-if | boolean | Setting this flag will prevent only simulate this command, by counting the execution of the deletion. The process will be simulated in order to count all documents that would be deleted without this flag. | no | false | --what-if |
--skip-confirmation | boolean | Setting this flag will skip the initial warning , that all data is going to will be deleted. | no | false | --skip-confirmation |
...
In the following example, all objects of the tenant default is going to will be deleted. Each day is splitted split in time periods which contains approximate contain approximately 500 objects.
