12.7. Removing a Host from a Self-Hosted Engine Environment

To remove a self-hosted engine node from your environment, place the node into maintenance mode, undeploy the node, and optionally remove it. The node can be managed as a regular host after the HA services have been stopped, and the self-hosted engine configuration files have been removed.

Removing a Host from a Self-Hosted Engine Environment

  1. In the Administration Portal, click Compute → Hosts and select the self-hosted engine node.
  2. Click Management → Maintenance and click OK.
  3. Click Installation → Reinstall.
  4. Click the Hosted Engine tab and select UNDEPLOY from the drop-down list. This action stops the ovirt-ha-agent and ovirt-ha-broker services and removes the self-hosted engine configuration file.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Optionally, click Remove to open the Remove Host(s) confirmation window and click OK.
