fully deleting a clip

Hi, I am trying to delete a clip using the

emea1_profile1_rdqeDcw.pea

profile. For this I use the following code

      clip = new FPClip(this.centeraPool, clipId, FPLibraryConstants.FP_OPEN_ASTREE);

     

      int errors = 0;

      int numberOfBlobs = clip.getNumBlobs();

      if (numberOfBlobs > 0) {

        logger.trace(String.format("deleting %d tags of clip '%s'", numberOfBlobs, clipId));

       

        FPTag tag = null;

        while ((tag = clip.FetchNext()) != null) {

          try {

            if (tag.BlobExists() == 1) {

              logger.debug("deleting BLOB");

              tag.BlobPurge();

            }

           

            tag.Delete();

          } catch (Exception e) {

            errors++;

          } finally {

            close(tag);

          }

        }

      }

     

      close(clip);

      clip = null;

    

      if (errors > 0) {

        logger.warn(

          String.format("there have been %d errors while deleting tags of clip %s - the clip will not be deleted"

            , errors

            , clipId));

      } else {

        logger.info(

            String.format("all tags of clip %s have been deleted successfully, deleting clip itself", clipId));

       

        FPClip.AuditedDelete( this.centeraPool

          , clipId

          , String.format("%s/%s", this.applicationName, this.applicationVersion)

          , FPLibraryConstants.FP_OPTION_DEFAULT_OPTIONS);

      }

because the documentation states that the BLOB data of a clip will not be deleted by the clip.AuditedDelete resp. clipDelete methods.
When I run my code I get an

com.filepool.fplibrary.FPLibraryException: The use of this operation is restricted (transid='vie-vm-cre-ipc/25/PURGE_BLOB')

exception. Are there still rights missing with the  profile (rdqeDcw) I am using.
I have also taken a look at the DeleteContent sdk sample and this does neither delete the BLOBS nor the tags of the clip.
Which is the best method to completely remove a clip (and all its data) from Centera?
