Use DELETE EXTRACT to delete an Extract group. This command deletes the checkpoint file that belongs to the group, but leaves the parameter file intact. You can then re-create the group or delete the parameter file as needed.

Before using DELETE EXTRACT, stop Extract with the STOP EXTRACT command.
