How to delete a queue in Process Engine?
FileNet doesn’t provide any mechanism to delete a queue; whether it is a work queue or a component queue. The only workaround is to initialize the isolated region in following way: • Export isolated region configuration data to XML – Use Process Configuration Console (PCC) to export all components of selected isolated region. • Initialize a isolated region. • Take a backup of XML file from the export in step 1 and carefully edit the XML file to remove the nodes of unwanted queue. • Import the XML file in recently initialized isolated region with the option ‘overwrite’. • Validate the configuration. Note: When an isolated region is initialized, it makes changes to the workflow database structure and the data in workflow database is deleted. FileNet developer should design and configure the queues very carefully to avoid a situation where they will have to delete a queue.
