Deleting a cache group

About deleting a cache group

When you no longer need a particular cache group, you can easily delete it. Since you cannot restore a deleted cache group, make sure you will no longer need it. When you delete a cache group, you must also delete or modify any scheduled collection events based upon this cache group.

To learn more about scheduled events, see Scheduling log file collection and processing.

Note
ContentReporter stores records in your database on a per cache basis. It does not store records for cache groups. If you delete a cache group, and then create a new cache group with the same name, the new cache group has no relation to the deleted group with the same name. However, records for deleted caches remain in the database. A report on a deleted cache will be based on the cache's database records. In addition, if you delete a cache, and add a new cache with the same name to a cache group, ContentReporter will associate the new cache with the database records of the old cache.
