------------------------------------------------------------------
bq. Is the atlas.DeleteHandler.impl configuration key supported in this version?
Starting with Apache Atlas 0.8 release, please set the following property to
enable hard-delete:
{noformat}
atlas.DeleteHandlerV1.impl=org.apache.atlas.repository.store.graph.v1.HardDeleteHandlerV1
{noformat}
bq. Is it possible to delete a "DELETED" entity?
Currently attempt to delete an entity which is in 'DELETED' state is ignored.
However, when hard-delete is configured, it makes sense to delete such
entities. It will enable the usecase you describe above. Can you please file a
JIRA for this update?
bq. Does Atlas version 0.8.0 support hard deletes
Yes, it does. However, this is not a recommended configuration in production
deployments - given role of Atlas in governance domain.

> Soft and hard deletes, deleting a "DELETED" entity and cleanup of unused types

> Key: ATLAS-2498
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-2498
> Project: Atlas
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.8-incubating
> Reporter: Mark Kiami
> Priority: Major
>
> Hello,
> Since the documentation on this feature not clear, could you please answer or
> confirm the following:
> # When an entity is deleted, its status goes to "DELETED", this is a soft
> delete.
> # Does Atlas version 0.8.0 support hard deletes (HDP 2.6.4 ships with 0.8.0)?
> # Is the atlas.DeleteHandler.impl configuration key supported in this
> version?
> # Is it possible to delete a "DELETED" entity?
> I am asking this because I am stuck in the following scenario:
> * Create a new ENTITY type named "custom_type"
> * Create an entity of that type "entity_1_of_custom_type", its status is
> "ACTIVE"
> * Delete the entity "entity_1_of_custom_type", its status is "DELETED"
> * Delete the ENTITY type named "custom_type"
> * I get an error: \{"errorCode":"ATLAS-409-00-002","errorMessage":"Given
> type custom_type has references"}
> How is it possible in this case to cleanup both the DELETED entity and the
> unused type "custom_type"?
> Thanks!
