ATTENTION!
As mentioned on the pop-up window of the NMC console, deletion of a probe may make you loss all data related to this probe.
Newtest support team could not help you get your data back.
After deleting a probe from the NMC console, it is normal that you can't create a new one with the same name on a single day. You have to wait for the scheduled daily purge or you can follow the following steps to force a purge.
Delete a probe in NEP 2.2.1
1. Open SQL Server Management Studio and run the job nmc_DataTransfer_SQL.
This step allows to sychronize delete information to your DWH. You may check with the following SQL query in your DWH :
SELECT * FROM [NewtestDWH].[newtest].[Object] where OBJ_STATE = 3
OBJ_STATE = 3 means that the probe is marked as to delete in the DWH.
2. Run the job nmc_dbnmcDaily.
This step force the purge to take place before when it is scheduled. Then you will be able to create a new probe with the same name.
Delete a probe in NEP 3.0.X
1. Open SQL Server Management Studio and run the job NewtestData_DataTransfer_SQL.
This step allows to sychronize delete information to your DWH. You may check with the following SQL query in your DWH :
SELECT * FROM [NewtestDWH].[newtest].[Object] where OBJ_STATE = 3
2. Execute the following SQL Query.
USE [NewtestData]
GO
EXEC[dbo].[ps_ANL_PurgeObject]
GO
USE [NewtestReference]
GO
EXEC[dbo].[ps_REF_PurgeReferenceObject]
GO
USE [NewtestDWH]
GO
EXEC[newtest].[ps_DTW_PurgeObject]
GO
Then you will be able to create a new probe with the same name again.
