  • 1.  Delete cluster secondary node

    Posted Fri July 24, 2015 08:38 AM
    Dear All,

    In our environment we have a horizontal cluster with two nodes.
    We have taken clone of node1 server alone and started the dmgr in the cloned server
    In the dmgr I could see that node2 is also listed, I want to remove the node2.
    So, I deleted the node2 from the cluster members list.
    Then i tried  to remove the node2 from systemAdministration->Nodes->RemoveNode.

    I got the below error, please suggest me how to remove the secondary node from the server.


    The node agent on node kjbpmw02Node01 is not active. The node can not be removed.

    Have you tried to force delete it ? It is the button next to remove node.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I tried Force Delete option .
    The node got deleted , but it had prompted that you also need to delete the node from 
     the command line with removeNode.sh .

    But inorder to execute removeNode.sh, i need the profile name.But i dont have a seconday node's profile here (in this primary node).

    please let us know if any queries.

    Hi Hari,

      I don't know what have you done to clone the server.
     
      When you talk about DR is for DMGR and I say you the way to achieve it, but you are now taking about to clone a node and then modified your cell configuration that is another thing.
     
      The WebSphere Contrarian: Run time management high availability options, redux
      www.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/tec...

      What do you want to do, when you are talking about to DR?
     
      Becarefull when you are "cloning" because you can delete production system.
     
      BTW, in which version of WAS are you working?
     
    Regards

    Dear Gabriel,

    We need to set up a DR(Disaster recovery)  environment. 

    In Production we have a WAS 7 cluster (vertical)  with two nodes (bpm01 and bpm02) on two different machines.

    We need to set up DR environment with only one machine, i mean one node. 

    So, we have taken a disk copy of bpm01 node and restored in DR server.

    Now how i can remove node configuration details in the DR server.

    We have ensured that PROD is not affected by disabling DNS for DR server. 

    please advice.

    please let us know if any queries.
