If you remove an application controller, PowerHA SystemMirror removes it from the definition of all application monitors that were configured to monitor the application. PowerHA SystemMirror also sends a message about which monitor will no longer be used for the application. If you remove the last application controller in use for any particular monitor; that is, if the monitor will no longer be used for any application, verification issues a warning that the monitor will no longer be used.
