We need to repurpose an agent into another cluster. What steps need to be taken to move an agent from one cluster to another to ensure it’s clean to enter the new cluster. E.g. delete all data from database table x, delete all files in directory y etc.
Since we will be doing this reasonably frequently (setting up and testing data with external interfaces on one environment before bringing it into a live system), we want to be sure there is nothing hanging around that wouldn't be covered by the deletealldata.dmupgrade package.
If we could avoid an uninstall-reinstall, that would be preferable.
Hi Jack,
If you are running a DataMiner version 10.0.12 or later, you can use the Skyline Facotry Reset tool.
If you are running an earlier version, you can use the steps described here to clean your DataMiner.
Hi Jack,
This summary is correct!
Thanks Ive. We will be working with pre-10.0.12 for the near future so thanks for the link. From the link (and subsequent links), it seems that pre-10.0.12, we should be doing the following:
1) Stop DMA
2) Run the DeleteAllDataDMA.dmupgrade package
3) Clear C:/Skyline DataMiner/Profiles
4) Clear C:/Skyline DataMiner/Dashboards
5) Start DMA
