Delete a Scope

You can delete a scope only if you have the root scope owner privileges. Site Administrators are the owners of all scopes.

Deleting a scope impacts the application inventory membership of the parent scope (the workloads that are members of the parent scope). After you delete a scope, the status of the parent scope changes to draft changes. Commit the changes along with the dependencies such as workspaces, policies, and config intent. For more information, see Commit Changes.

You cannot delete scopes with dependent objects. An error message is displayed under the following circumstances:

• A workspace is defined for the scope.

• An inventory filter is assigned to the scope.

• A policy exists that uses the scope to define its consumers or providers.

• An agent config intent is defined in the scope.

• An interface config intent is defined in the scope.

• A forensics config intent is defined on the scope.

  For more information on scope dependencies in the Review Scope/Filter Change Impact page, click the Dependencies tab. Delete redundant objects before you delete the scope.

  Delete scopes that are without any child scopes. To remove a root scope, remove the VRF first from the Tenants page.
