(U) Deleting a Flytrap
(S) Flytraps (and all associated data) can be deleted from the CB CC (i.e., CherryTree)
server database, although this is generally not recommended – once the Flytrap and its
associated data are deleted, the data cannot be recovered. To delete a Flytrap:
1. Determine Flytrap ID – Log on to CherryWeb and navigate to the Flytrap
Details page for the Flytrap of interest. The Flytrap ID is displayed on this page.
2. Establish a CB Server “root” Console/Terminal to the master CB CC server
(i.e., the master Cherry Tree server) – This step requires an Icon terminal. See
the CB Installation Guide for instructions on how to establish a “root” console
and for server IP addresses (at time of writing [30 December 2010] the CB CC
master server service IP address was 172.24.5.16).
3. Disable the CB CC Server – from the “root” console, execute:
~cbuser/bin/disable-server.sh
4. Execute the delete Flytrap script – from the “root” console, execute:
cd /home/cbuser/CherryBlossom/CherryTree/Release
./runDeleteFlytrap.sh <Flytrap_ID>
where <Flytrap_ID> is the Flytrap ID retrieved during an earlier step. Note that a
Flytrap with a lot of associated data can take many minutes to delete.
5. Enable the CB CC Server – from the “root” console, execute:
~cbuser/bin/enable-server.sh
