  • 1.  Deleting object space

    Posted Wed August 13, 2025 07:56 AM
    Hi,
    I created an object space (called /WebSEAL/sharedcontent-rp) in a clustered environment, and when I try to delete it, I receive the following message:
    HPDAC0458E The protected object name specified was not found in the authorization policy database. (0x1005b1ca)
     
    I tried deleting it via the command line using object delete and objectspace delete, and the error is the same.
    Commands:
    object delete /WebSEAL/sharedcontent-rp
    objectspace delete /WebSEAL/sharedcontent-rp
     
    Any ideas?

    Hi Rudy,

    Your issue is most likely that you have ACL's attached to the objects under the object space.

    Try first detaching any ACL's, then run the commands listed in your post.

    Thank you for the tip.

    Although I removed all (found) ACLs attached to the objects in the object space, it was not possible to delete the object space.

    In the end, I used the policy_db_dump command, and with it I was able to remove the object space along with all the objects it contained.
