Does anyone happen to know a way to safely delete datasource objects (Cognos Connection -> Cognos Administration -> Directory -> Datasources)  that aren't being used by any packages/reports?

...I'm guessing not, but I thought I'd ask.

cheers,
david.

I tend to use the squeel system for this.

Rename every datasource i think is dodgy to _pending.
If someone squeels i rename it back to original
Then after a month or 2 all remaining _pending are removed.

yeah, I can live with that.....

thanks!
