Removing an instance of a worker service virtual machine

To remove a worker service virtual machine, complete these steps.

Procedure

  1. Modify the BKRUSERS NAMES configuration file to delete the names of the worker service virtual machines that you want to remove.
  2. If BKRUSERS NAMES also resides on MAINT 19E or other shared minidisk, copy your updated file to this additional location and reload the CMS saved system if necessary.
  3. Restart the primary backup server.

What to do next

You can also perform additional cleanup to remove the user ID and its minidisk from the CP directory, remove the user from the list of ADMINs in the DMSPARMS file, delete the user from the SFS file pool, and change the users authorization to NONE for tape pools.
