Deleting a Keyword from a Template File

When using the update file to delete a keyword from the template, you must specify the key parameter and value that identify the keyword, along with the keyword DELETE. For example, if the template file specifies the following keyword:

MODE=(
     MODE_NAME=#INTER
     AUTO_ACT=0
     COMPRESSION=PROHIBITED
     COS_NAME=#INTER
     CRYPTOGRAPHY=NONE
     DEFAULT_RU_SIZE=1
     MAX_NEGOTIABLE_SESSION_LIMIT=256
     MAX_RU_SIZE_UPPER_BOUND=4096
     MIN_CONWINNERS_SOURCE=128
     PLU_MODE_SESSION_LIMIT=256
     RECEIVE_PACING_WINDOW=20
)

and the response file contains the following keyword:

MODE=(
     MODE_NAME=#INTER
     DELETE
)

the resulting configuration does not contain the #INTER mode definition.

The DELETE keyword can appear after a parameter=value specification or on a line by itself, either preceding or following the parameter. For example, the following uses of the DELETE keyword are valid:

MODE=(
     MODE_NAME=#INTER
     DELETE
)
MODE=(
     DELETE
     MODE_NAME=#INTER
)

The DELETE keyword cannot appear in front of a parameter=value specification on the same line. For example, the following uses of the DELETE keyword are not valid:

MODE=(
     DELETE MODE_NAME=#INTER
)
 
MODE=(
     MODE_NAME=#INTER DELETE
)

To delete all keywords of a particular type, or to delete one keyword that does not have a key field, only the keyword and the DELETE keyword are necessary. For example,

MODE=(
     DELETE
)
