Permanently remove a soft-deleted entry from the PingDirectory server.
  • To permanently remove a soft-deleted entry, run ldapdelete on the soft-deleted entry.

    The following example assumes that you configured soft deletes as a global configuration for requests.

    $ bin/ldapdelete \ 
  entryUUID=4e9b7847-edcb-3791-b11b-7505f4a55af4+uid=user.1,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com
         
Processing DELETE request for entryUUID=4e9b7847-edcb-3791-b11b-
7505f4a55af4+uid=user.1,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com    
DELETE operation successful for DN entryUUID=4e9b7847-edcb-3791-b11b-  
7505f4a55af4+uid=user.1,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com
    Note:

    You cannot soft-delete an already soft-deleted entry. If you use the --useSoftDelete subcommand with the ldapdelete operation on a soft-deleted entry, an error message generates.

    DELETE operation failed. Result Code: 53 (Unwilling to Perform) Diagnostic Message: DELETE operation failed.
