    Hi @Matthew Morris

    A client can be deleted using AWI
    1. Login to Client 0 (with proper permissions)
    2. Switch to Administration --> Clients Management
    3. Select the proper Client
    4. Push the Delete-button


    Or use the tool DB Client Copy.

    Depending on the "size" of the client I would recommend to do standard DB-maintenance ( DB Archive, DB Reorg, DB Unload).


    See https://docs.automic.com/documentation/webhelp/english/ALL/components/DOCU/21.0.4/Automic%20Automation%20Guides/Content/AWA/AdministrationPerspective/AG_WorkingWithClients.htm


    An Agent can be deleted by doing the following
    • Login to client 0 (with proper permissions)
    • Switch to Administration --> Agents & Groups
    • Select the proper Agent
    • In the context-menu select Stop
    • Push the Delete-button
    In order to delete the Agent's binary-files
    • (assuming the Agent's processes are no longer running; user has proper permissions to delete files/folders)
    • switch to the Agent's folder e.g. cd /Automic/Agent
    • delete all files and folders e.g. rm -r *
