Manage deployment environment resources

You can manage the resources of your deployment environment to address changing requirements over time.

Verify that the deployment environments exist on this dmgr.

On the administrative console of the dmgr, click Servers > Deployment Environments.
You must completely stop any nodes you are removing from the deployment environment before removing those nodes.

When security and role-based authorization are enabled, you must log in to the administrative console as an administrator or configurator to perform this task.

As your deployment environment needs evolve, you can manage its resources to address new demands and processing requirements.
In managing the resources of a deployment environment, you can do the following:

Add or remove servers and clusters.
Change which nodes participate in specific functions.
Change the configuration of data sources.
Change authentication aliases.
Obtain information on how to configure databases or tables if you previously deferred that operation.
