Unregistering a Management Station

Unregister a management station from OS Management Hub to remove it from the service.

What happens to the station when it's unregistered?

Unregistering restores the yum or DNF repository files to their state before the instance was registered with the service. Unregistering removes the OS Management Hub agent plugin from the station instance. You can also optionally remove the Management Agent software from the system.

Any instances that were using the station will be unable to communicate with OS Management Hub.

To unregister a station:
  1. Before unregistering, ensure no instances are using the station. If needed, switch instances to another station.
    Important

    After the station unregisters, any instances using the station will be unable to communicate with OS Management Hub.
  2. Open the navigation menu and click Observability & Management. Under OS Management Hub, click Management stations.
  3. Under List scope, select the compartment that contains the management station.
  4. Click the name of the management station.
  5. Review the station's job history and reports. This information is no longer available after you unregister. See the following:
  6. Click Unregister.
  7. (Optional) If you no longer need to use the Management Agent service, remove the mgmt_agent package.
