CSCux50369 - Cannot delete policies starting with "__ui_"
Symptom:
Unable to delete policies created in Basic Mode GUI or policies using the naming convention from Basic Mode GUI (starting with __ui_), for example policies created using the NX-OS Style CLI
Conditions:
Hit when looking at something in Advanced Mode GUI that was created by the backend when configuring policy in Basic Mode GUI or created using the NX-OS Style CLI
Workaround:
These policies, having been internally created using the basic GUI, should not be deleted/modified directly since the User wouldn't know the effect of such operations. Recommended to delete these policies from the basic GUI.
If the policy was created from the NX-OS Style CLI, issue the corresponding command that created the object with "no" in front of it to delete the associated objects that were created by issuing the original command.
Options to manually delete the objects, but make sure you understand the implications of deleting the object before doing so:
1. Delete using REST API POST
2. Delete using modelete; navigate to the appropriate folder containing the object, then issue an modelete of that object, followed by moconfig commit
I hope this helps and thank you for using the Cisco Support Community for ACI.
