Deleting a TIBCO Host

GUI

Note: A Host in the 'running' state cannot be deleted from the UI. The Delete icon is disabled and the Unregister icon is enabled. On the other hand, when the Host is in any state other than the 'running' state, the Unregister icon is disabled and the Delete icon is enabled. The CLI functionality for the Delete and Unregister operations remains unchanged.
  1. Navigate to Hosts list.
  2. In the Hosts list, select one or more Hosts.
  3. Choose a Delete option.
    • Delete: The logical entry for this TIBCO Host is removed from the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator's database.
    • Force Delete: The logical entry for this TIBCO Host is removed from the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator's database, even if there are nodes on that Host. The runtime folder structure of the TIBCO Host instance remains intact. An explicit delete of the folder has to be performed as a part of clean-up.

Upon successful Delete, the Host is no longer seen in the GUI.

CLI

What to Expect After Deleting a TIBCO Host

  • If the TIBCO Host is still reachable, it is unregistered from TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator (is not same as uninstall - folder structure of TIBCO Host instance remains intact).
  • The logical entry for this TIBCO Host from the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator's database is removed. It will no longer display in the GUI.
