Tivoli Management Framework Reference Manual, 3.7.1, March, 2001

wrmnode

Removes a managed node from a Tivoli installation.

Syntax

wrmnode [-f] node_name [-d dispatcher_number] [node_name [-d dispatcher_number]]...

Description

The wrmnode command removes the specified managed node from the Tivoli database. For a UNIX managed node, this command shuts down the dispatcher, and then removes the node from the Tivoli database.

Managed nodes are specified by name. If a managed node has been damaged, it may be necessary to provide the dispatcher number. This number can be obtained by using the odadmin odlist command.

This command does not remove the Tivoli management region server.

After using wrmnode, you may want to verify the database with the wchkdb command. This ensures that there are no references to the node.

Options

-d dispatcher_number: Shuts down the specified dispatcher and removes a damaged managed node.
-f: Performs all requested removals without requiring confirmation from the user.
node_name: Specifies the name of the managed node to be removed.

Authorization

install-client, super

Notes

This command does not remove the Tivoli executables, databases, and other files from the affected managed node.

Examples

The following example removes the managed node sherman from the Tivoli database:
```
wrmnode sherman 
```
The following example removes a partially installed or partially removed node. The dispatcher number must be provided because the node name is not fully known to the system. To determine the dispatcher number, enter the following:
```
odadmin odlist

 

Region Disp Flags Port    IPaddr  Hostname(s)

2323231  ct- 737 146.84.25.15  ceridwen,ceridwen.tivoli.com

2  -t- 737 146.84.29.12  elcap,elcap.tivoli.com
```
To remove the partially installed or partially removed node, enter the following:
```
wrmnode elcap -d 2

 
```
