Removing a spoke server

You can remove a spoke server from the Operations Center. For example, you might want to move the spoke server from one hub server to another hub server, or you might want to decommission the spoke server.

1. Remove the spoke server from the group of servers that is managed by the hub server by completing the following steps:
   1. From a Tivoli® Storage Manager command line, issue the following command to the hub server:

      QUERY MONITORSETTINGS

   2. From the output of the command, copy the name that is in the Monitored Group field.
   3. Issue the following command to the hub server:

      DELETE GRPMEMBER group_name member_name

      where group_name represents the name of the monitored group, and member_name represents the name of the spoke server.

2. Optional: Disable alerting and monitoring on the spoke server by issuing the following commands to the spoke server. Do not complete this step if you want to move a spoke server from one hub server to another hub server.

   SET STATUSMONITOR OFF
   SET ALERTMONITOR OFF

3. Optional: Delete the spoke-server definition on the hub server by issuing the following command to the hub server. Do not complete this step if the spoke-server definition is used for other purposes, for example, enterprise configuration, command routing, storing virtual volumes, or library management.

   DELETE SERVER server_name

   where server_name represents the name of the spoke server.
