Deleting Labs

Labs in CML are persistent. After a lab has been stopped, CML will maintain the state for all nodes in the lab. Any setting that you modify during the simulation is automatically saved by the system. The next time you start the lab, all nodes will be using the same running configurations from the last time the lab was stopped.

To delete a lab, you must first stop the lab simulation and remove (wipe) its persistent state.
