Deleting a Table on the DLI Console

You can delete an unused data table from the DLI console: when a data table is no longer needed, such as after a test data table has completed testing; if a data table has errors or anomalies that cannot be fixed; when there is a need to reorganize the data structure, such as by modifying table designs; or if a data table is idle and has no practical use.

This section describes how to delete a data table on the DLI management console.

Precautions

Databases or tables that are being used for running jobs cannot be deleted.
Only administrators, table owners, and users with table deletion permission can delete tables.
Note
Deleted data tables cannot be restored. Exercise caution when performing this operation.
