There may be a scenario where it is impossible to access the FortiGate GUI and there is a requirement to delete the VDOM.
But usually, it is not an easy task, because if any objects are being referenced by this VDOM, it is impossible to delete the VDOM right away.
Here are the steps to delete VDOM from CLI:
- Purge all VDOM-related configurations:
Press "y" after every "purge" command.
This operation will clear all table!
Do you want to continue? (y/n)
config vdom
edit <VDOM name>
config firewall policy
purge
end
config firewall policy6
purge
end
config firewall vipgrp
purge
end
config firewall vip
purge
end
config firewall addrgrp
purge
end
config firewall address
purge
end
config router static
purge
end
end
There may be some default objects that cannot be purged, it is possible to ignore them.
-
Assign any interfaces used by the VDOM back to ROOT or delete them if unused (for example VLAN interface):
config global
config system interface
edit <intf name>
set vdom root
end
end
or:
config global
config system interface
delete <intf name>
end
end
-
Delete any VDOM Links if any:
config global
config system vdom-link
delete <vdom-link name>
end
end
-
Make sure all admins are NOT assigned to the VDOM, it is possible to assign it to the root:
config global
config system admin
edit <admin username>
set vdom root
end
end
-
Then delete the VDOM:
config vdom
delete <VDOM name>
end
