Deleting an operating system template

You can delete an operating system template if you no longer need it. Deleting the template removes its configuration data from z/VM Center and frees the disk space it had used for redeployment.

Complete these steps to delete an operating system template:

  1. If it is not started already, start the Virtual Server Deployment task for the z/VM System you want to work with.
  2. In the Provisioning Resources tree, expand the Operating System Templates node to display a list of the available operating system templates.
  3. Select and right-click the operating system template you want to delete; then click Delete. You are prompted to confirm that you want to delete the template.
