How to Delete a Send Port Group

This topic describes how use the BizTalk Server Administration console to delete a send port group from a BizTalk application. When you do this, the send port group is also deleted from the BizTalk Management database for the group. Deleting a send port group does not delete any send ports that it contains.

You can delete a send port group only if it meets the following conditions:

• An orchestration is not bound to the send port group. If this is the case, you can remove the binding by following the instructions in How to Unbind an Orchestration.

• The send port group is both stopped and unenlisted. For instructions on stopping and unenlisting a send port, see How to Unenlist a Send Port or Send Port Group and How to Stop a Send Port or Send Port Group.

• The send port group is not referenced by a party. For instructions on removing a reference to a send port group from a party, see View or Edit a Party.
