cascade-delete

Description

Deletes the specified security attribute namespace. This operation triggers a process that removes all of the security attributes defined in the specified security attribute namespace from all resources in your tenancy and then deletes the security attribute namespace.

After you start the delete operation:

  • New security attribute key definitions cannot be created under the namespace. * The state of the security attribute namespace changes to DELETING. * Security attribute removal from the resources begins.

This process can take up to 48 hours depending on the number of security attributes in the namespace, the number of resources that are tagged, and the locations of the regions in which those resources reside.

After all security attributes are removed, the state changes to DELETED. You cannot restore a deleted security attribute namespace. After the deleted security attribute namespace changes its state to DELETED, you can use the name of the deleted security attribute namespace again.

After you start this operation, you cannot start either the DeleteSecurityAttribute or the BulkDeleteSecurityAttributes operation until this process completes.

To delete a security attribute namespace, you must first retire it. Use UpdateTagNamespace to retire a security attribute namespace.

Usage

oci security-attribute security-attribute-namespace cascade-delete [OPTIONS]

Required Parameters

--security-attribute-namespace-id [text]

The OCID of the security attribute namespace.

Optional Parameters

--from-json [text]

Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--if-match [text]

For optimistic concurrency control. In the PUT or DELETE call for a resource, set the if-match parameter to the value of the etag from a previous GET or POST response for that resource. The resource will be updated or deleted only if the etag you provide matches the resource’s current etag value.

Example using required parameter

Copy the following CLI commands into a file named example.sh. Run the command by typing “bash example.sh” and replacing the example parameters with your own.

Please note this sample will only work in the POSIX-compliant bash-like shell. You need to set up the OCI configuration and appropriate security policies before trying the examples.
