(12.06.100-en) How to Use the Recycle Bin in the IGEL UMS Web App

In the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS), objects are sent to the recycle bin when deleted by default.

If the recycle bin is disabled, the objects are removed permanently straight away. The recycle bin is enabled or disabled globally for all UMS users under Network > Settings > UMS Features, see (12.06.100-en) Network Settings in the IGEL UMS Web App .

For details on how to use the recycle bin in the UMS Console, see (12.06.100-en) Recycle Bin - Deleting Objects in the IGEL UMS.

Move to Recycle Bin

In the UMS Web App, configuration objects (that is, profiles, files, and CICs) and their directories can be moved to the recycle bin. The highest nodes in the structure tree (the root directories) cannot be deleted.

Assigned profiles, files, and CICs in the recycle bin are not active. This means that the settings for devices may change by moving configuration objects to the recycle bin. Profiles previously assigned to devices will be reactivated if they are restored from the recycle bin.

→ To move the selected configuration object to the recycle bin, click Delete either from the context menu or through the action button. The object will be moved to the Recycle Bin following confirmation.

→ To move a directory, use the Delete Directory action button. Directories are moved to the recycle bin along with their sub-folders and all contained elements and can therefore be restored again as a complete structure.

If the recycle bin is enabled, the Move to Recycle Bin confirmation dialog is shown. If it is not enabled, the dialog will ask to confirm the deletion of the object straight away.

Restore or Delete from Recycle Bin

→ To see the items moved to the recycle bin and to restore or permanently delete them, open the recycle bin through the icon:

The recycle bin only displays the deleted objects of the selected configuration tab. For example, if you click the icon while in the profiles tab, you will only see the deleted profiles and profile directories, but not the CICs or files.

→ You can restore or delete items one by one, or you can select them through the checkboxes and click Restore Selected or Delete Selected to perform the action on more items at once.
