Removing hosts
You can remove one or more hosts that were added to Veritas Resiliency Platform for discovery and monitoring by an Infrastructure Management Server (IMS).
If the hosts contain assets that were added to a Resiliency Platform resiliency group, after you remove the hosts, the assets are no longer shown as part of the resiliency group in the console. However, removing a resiliency group does not remove related hosts from the IMS. Removing hosts and removing resiliency groups are separate operations and can be performed in either sequence.
When you perform the remove host operation on any host, it first uninstalls all the add-ons that were installed on that host, and then removes the host from the IMS. The host is not removed in case the uninstallation of any of the add-ons fails. If the same host is being used in in any other context in add-ons such as discovery host, the add-ons that are required for that particular context are not removed from the host. If a host is used in multiple contexts, then it is removed only from the context from where you perform the remove host operation.
To remove hosts
- Navigate
Settings (menu bar) > Infrastructure > Details View
- Go to the section from where you want to remove the host. For example, the Managed Host section or the Storage section.
- On the host listing page, right-click the host and select Remove.
- Confirm that you want to remove the host.
- You can check the details of the remove host workflow in the Recent Activities pane.
Removing a host does not uninstall the host package (VRTSsfmh) from the host. More information is available on uninstalling the host package.
