To deallocate a tenant table from the tenant:

  1. Click Database Administration > Go to Database Administration in the OpenEdge Management console menu.
    The Database Administration page appears.
  2. Filter or search for, and select the required database connection.
    The database connection home page appears.
  3. Click View tenants in the Storage Management section.
    The Tenant List page appears.
  4. Select the tenant whose table you want to deallocate.
    The tenant details page appears.
  5. Under Data Administration, click Deallocate tables.

    The Deallocate Tenant Tables page appears and provides the table details: Table, Area, Allocation State, Status, and Comments. You can filter the tables which appear in the grid by a table name. Enter a table name in the Table name field and click on the Search icon. The grid displays the tables that match the entered criteria.

    You can also move forward or backward a page, or specify a particular page, in the list of tables by using the Page feature at the bottom of the list.

    Note: You can select the column heading and click the drop-down to choose the order (ascending or descending alphabetically) for the tables to appear in the grid.
  6. Select one or more individual tables to be deallocated, or click the Select All check box. A warning message appears.
  7. To continue, click Yes; to cancel the deallocation, click No. If you click Yes, you see one of the following statuses, depending on the deallocation progress:
    • If the deallocation has completed, you see the following confirmation evidence: The Allocation state changes to None; the Status changes to Done; and Task completed successfully appears in the comments for that table.
    • If the deallocation is in progress, you see a notation that the Background task has been submitted.
    • If the deallocation has timed out, you see the comment Check the logs in the task list. Note that the progress of the task is verified at five-second intervals, up to a maximum of ten minutes.
