4.5.1. Removing a Datasource from an Existing Deployment

To remove a datasource from an existing deployment there are two primary stages, removing it from the active service, and then removing it from the active configuration.

For example, to remove host6 from a service:

Check the current service state:

[LOGICAL] /alpha > ls

COORDINATOR[host1:AUTOMATIC:ONLINE]

ROUTERS:
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|connector@host1[11401](ONLINE, created=17, active=0)                        |
|connector@host2[7998](ONLINE, created=0, active=0)                          |
|connector@host3[31540](ONLINE, created=0, active=0)                         |
|connector@host4[26829](ONLINE, created=27, active=1)                        |

Switch to MAINTENANCE policy mode:

[LOGICAL] /alpha > set policy maintenance
policy mode is now MAINTENANCE

Switch to administration mode:
```
[LOGICAL] /alpha > admin
```

Remove the node from the active service using the rm command. You will be warned that this is an expert command and to confirm the operation:

[ADMIN] /alpha > rm host6

WARNING: This is an expert-level command:
Incorrect use may cause data corruption
or make the cluster unavailable.

Do you want to continue? (y/n)> y

Switch back to logical mode:
```
[ADMIN] /alpha > logical
```

Switch to AUTOMATIC policy mode:

[LOGICAL] /alpha > set policy automatic
policy mode is now AUTOMATIC

Now the node has been removed from the active dataservice, the services must be stopped and then removed from the configuration.

Stop the running services:
```
shell> stopall
```

Now you must remove the node from the configuration, although the exact method depends on which installation method used with tpm:

If you are using staging directory method with tpm:

shell> tpm query staging
tungsten@db1:/opt/continuent/software/tungsten-clustering-6.1.25-6

shell> echo The staging USER is `tpm query staging| cut -d: -f1 | cut -d@ -f1`
The staging USER is tungsten

shell> echo The staging HOST is `tpm query staging| cut -d: -f1 | cut -d@ -f2`
The staging HOST is db1

shell> echo The staging DIRECTORY is `tpm query staging| cut -d: -f2`
The staging DIRECTORY is /opt/continuent/software/tungsten-clustering-6.1.25-6

shell> ssh {STAGING_USER}@{STAGING_HOST}
shell> cd {STAGING_DIRECTORY}

shell> ./tools/tpm configure alpha \
    --connectors=host1,host2,host3,host4 \
    --members=host1,host2,host3

Run the tpm command to update the software with the Staging-based configuration:

shell> ./tools/tpm update

For information about making updates when using a Staging-method deployment, please see Section 10.3.7, “Configuration Changes from a Staging Directory”.

If you are using the INI file method with tpm:
- Remove the INI configuration file:
```
shell> rm /etc/tungsten/tungsten.ini
```

Stop the replicator/manager from being started again.
- If this all the services on the this node, replicator, manager and connector are being removed, remove the Tungsten Cluster installation entirely:
  - Remove the startup scripts from your server:
    shell> sudo /opt/continuent/tungsten/cluster-home/bin/undeployall
  - Remove the installation directory:
    shell> rm -rf /opt/continuent
- If the replicator/manager has been installed on a host but the connector is not being removed, remove the start scripts to prevent the services from being automatically started:
```
shell> rm /etc/init.d/tmanager
shell> rm /etc/init.d/treplicator
```
