Removing a Node¶
There may come a time when you need to remove a node from your distributed deployment. To do this, log into your manager and list all Salt keys:
sudo salt-key
Then remove the node by deleting its key from Salt (replacing nodename
with the actual node name):
sudo salt-key -d nodename
Remove the node from Grafana, by removing the reference in /opt/so/saltstack/local/pillar/data/sensorstab.sls
, and the file in /opt/so/conf/grafana/grafana_dashboards/sensor_nodes/ <hostname>-Node.json
on the manager, then restart Grafana with:
sudo so-grafana-restart
Remove search node¶
If you are removing a search node, you will want to remove it from cross cluster search. In Kibana, navigate to Dev Tools
and paste the following text into the window (replacing nodename
with the actual node name):
PUT _cluster/settings
{
"persistent": {
"search": {
"remote": {
"nodename": {
"skip_unavailable": null,
"seeds":null
}
}
}
}
}
