Creating and deleting instances

This topic describes how to create and delete instances.

There are restrictions for creating and deleting instances of settings that are part of a record. For more information about these restrictions, see Record management.
  • To create an instance, use the set command.
    If an instance does not exist, and the instance number is between 1 and the maximum number of allowed instances, the instance is automatically created and set to the value specified in the set command.
  • To delete an instance, use the delete command.
    This command deletes an instance, if deleting the instance does not cause the number of instances for that setting to go below the minimum number of allowed instances for the setting.
