IScheduler::DeletePool method

Deletes a pool on a cluster based on the supplied name. An exception is thrown if the pool doesn’t exist.

Syntax

HRESULT DeletePool(
  [in] BSTR         *poolName,
  [in] VARIANT_BOOL force
);

Parameters

  • poolName [in]
    The name of the pool on the cluster that will be deleted.

  • force [in]
    If VARIANT_TRUE, all job templates that reference the pool are moved to the default pool in addition to any jobs that use that template. After the job templates and jobs are moved to the default pool, the pool is deleted. If VARIANT_FALSE, the pool is only deleted if no job template uses that pool. If a job template is currently using the pool, an exception is thrown.
