Remove a DataPower appliance

We can use the admin console to remove an appliance from the DataPower appliance manager.

If you no longer want the DataPower appliance manager to manage one of you appliances, complete the following steps to remove that appliance from the DataPower appliance manager. Do not remove a DataPower appliance from a managed set if it is the only appliance in that managed set, until we have added the replacement appliance to that managed set. Removing the last appliance from a managed set causes the managed set to be deleted, and all of the versions of the shareable settings and domains to be removed from the DataPower appliance manager. There is not any way for you to recover these removed versions.

Procedure

1. In the admin console...

   Servers > DataPower > Appliances.

2. Verify that the appliance to remove is not part of a managed set.

   We cannot remove an appliance from the DataPower appliance manager if that appliance is part of a managed set. If the appliance to remove has the value unmanaged in the Managed Set column, the appliance is not part of a managed set.

   If the name of a managed set is specified in the Managed Set column, remove the appliance from the managed set before you remove it from the DataPower appliance manager.

   • If the appliance to remove from a managed set is the last appliance in that managed set, delete the managed set before you can remove the appliance from the DataPower appliance manager. When you delete the managed set, the appliance automatically becomes an unmanaged appliance and can be removed from the DataPower appliance manager.

   • If the appliance to remove from a managed set is not the last appliance in that managed set, complete the following actions to remove the appliance from that managed set.

   1. Click Managed sets, and then click the name of the managed set that includes the appliance to remove.

   2. Click Edit Membership , select the appliance to remove from the DataPower appliance manager, and then click Remove .

   3. Click Save to save your changes.

3. Select the appliance to remove from the DataPower appliance manager.

   To remove multiple appliances from the DataPower appliance manager, you can select all of the appliances to remove.

4. Click Remove.
