You can submit the Delete
cluster job
to remove a cluster from the flexible management environment.
Before you begin
Start the job
manager, the deployment manager, and the
targets on which the cluster resides.
Each cluster that you
want to delete must be a managed resource of the job manager.
About this task
You can use the administrative console of the job manager
or the deployment manager to delete a cluster from one or more managed
targets. From the console, choose the Delete cluster job,
specify job options, review the summary, and submit the job.
The
job stops the cluster, if it is running, and removes the cluster from
the flexible management environment and from the deployment manager
node.
Instead of using a console, you can run the deleteCluster
job script in the AdministrativeJobs command group. See the Administrative
job types topic.
