Abstract
A method is used in managing object deletion. Updated information about a system is repeatedly polled for. An information set is received identifying an object to be deleted from a system management model that is descriptive of the system. An iterative process is applied to determine other objects in the system management model that are unidentified in the information set and that are affected by deletion of the object. The object is deleted.
