Deleting a Transfer Package

Delete a transfer package from a disk import transfer job.

Typically, you would delete a transfer package early in the transfer process and before you create its associated transfer disk. You initiated the transfer job and package, but have changed your mind. If you delete a transfer package later in the transfer process, you must first detach the associated transfer disk.

Note

You cannot delete a transfer package once the package has been shipped to Oracle.
