# Deleting Backup Job

You can delete a backup job configured in Veeam Agent for Oracle Solaris. When you delete a backup job, backup files created by this job remain intact on the backup repository.

You can delete a backup job in one of the following ways:

- [Using the Veeam Agent control panel](#gui)
- [In the command line interface](#cmd)

## Deleting Job from Control Panel {#gui}

To delete a backup job, do the following:

1. Launch the Veeam Agent control panel with the `veeam` or `veeamconfig ui` command.
2. In the Veeam Agent control panel, press the [V] key to open the list of backup jobs.
3. Select the job that you want to delete and press the [D] key.

To delete a backup job, use the following command:

```
veeamconfig job delete --name <job_name>

or

```

- `<job_name>` — name of the backup job that you want to delete.
