Remove an application server node from a cell
If the application server node is a member of a cluster, remove the application server node from the cluster before removing the application server node from the deployment manager cell.
Procedure
- On each node in the cell, as non-root user, start the node the agent...
cd $WC_PROFILE
./startNode.sh
- On the WAS ND machine, start the deployment manager profile.
cd $DMGR_PROFILE/bin
./startManager.sh
- Create a backup of the current configuration. A backup is recommend in case the removeNode command fails. To create a backup of the current configuration, issue the following command on the application server node machine:
WC_PROFILE/bin/backupConfig.sh backup_file.zip
where backup_file specifies the name of the backup file. The system will create this file for you.
- On the application server node machine, issue the following command:
WC_PROFILE/bin/removeNode.sh
Results
Refer to the following links for information about the removeNode command:
The removeNode command only removes the node specific configuration from the cell. It does not uninstall any applications that were installed as the result of executing an addNode command, because such applications might subsequently be deployed on additional servers in the network deployment cell.
