Removing Scheduled Collections and RDCs

You can remove scheduled collections and RDCs from the Reporter console.

Scheduled collections displayed on your console may have been created by other administrators.   When you delete scheduled collections or RDCs, they are permanently removed from the system.   Before you delete an RDC, ensure there are no collections running. If collections are running, then certain files will not be deleted.

If you are using compressed data transport mode, note the following:

•	The services required to use this mode will be deleted.

•	Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) queues will not be deleted. You must manually delete the queues using Microsoft native tools.

To delete scheduled collections

1.	Expand Reporting | Collections | Scheduled Collections.

2.	Select a computer where an RDC is installed.

3.	In the upper-right pane, select one or more scheduled collections, right-click and select Delete.

4.	Click Yes.

To remove an RDC

1.	Expand Reporting | Collections | Scheduled Collections.

2.	Select an RDC and remove all scheduled collections in the upper-right pane.

You can only remove an RDC after the scheduled collections are deleted.

3.	Right-click an RDC and select Delete.

4.	Click Yes.

A dialog box may appear indicating that some files were not deleted on a remote RDC computer. You must delete these files manually if you want to deploy an RDC to that computer in the future.

If you do not delete the files, future RDC deployments to that computer will fail.
