Removing hosts from an IMS

You can remove one or more hosts that were added to 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.

For more information about resiliency groups, see the Solutions guides.

To remove hosts from an IMS

  1. Prerequisites

    Before removing a host, you need to uninstall all the add-ons that were installed on the host.

    See Uninstalling add-ons from the hosts.

  2. Navigate

    Settings (menu bar) > Infrastructure

  3. Under the data center, locate the IMS and click Manage Asset Infrastructure.
  4. On the IMS Settings page, click Host.
  5. Right-click the host and select Remove.

    To remove more than one host, hold down Ctrl as you select hosts from the list.

  6. Confirm that you want to remove the host.

Removing a host from the IMS does not uninstall the host package (VRTSsfmh) from the host. More information is available on uninstalling the host package.

See Uninstalling the host package from a Linux host.

See Uninstalling the host package from a Windows host.
