You can use this procedure to delete a site object. Delete a site object only after you have removed all server objects from the site and you have reassociated the subnets with a different site. The Servers container is deleted when you delete the site.

Membership in Enterprise Admins, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at Local and Domain Default Groups (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477).
