Hi,
Hopefully you found a solution! In case others are searching for a solution, there is a great article that explains all of the ins and outs of updating your process configuration: https://jazz.net/library/article/1002/. The article has a section on removing work item attributes.

And the article states that you can't remove old attribute values from the database as of today. This has been discussed several times on this forum already. One suggestion to get the old attribute out of the way is to rename it to something like zzz_OldName(deprecated). I think you have to do that before you delete the attribute itself.
