You can delete clips which either have no retention or their retention has expired with the FPCLip_Delete method. This can be used with Basic, GE or CE+ mode. The access profile that your app authenticas with needs to be granted the Delete capability.
When the clip id deleted, initialy only the CDF part of it is deleted. WHen garbage collection is run on the cluster any blobs associated with the CDF and not referenced by other CDFs will be deleted.
There is a sample program showing deletes included in the SDK download

Hello Paul
Thank you very much for your reply
One further question this referring:
From which Interface I have to run FPClip_Delete ?
Can I run this directlo from Centera Viewer or Centera CLI or is this a function only available over the API from the Application-Software (we use IXOS – Documentarchiving)
Thank you in advance

Ah right I thought you were an application developer.
You should be using IXOS to issue the delete from their application. If you were to delete the clip behind the back of IXOS it will probably give you an error if it tried to access it in the future (as it doesnt know its deleted).
You can delete clips using the tool jcasscript (downloadable in the sdk tools section of the community) but bear in mind the potential issue above.
