Unregistering a Slave

78-16571-01
The Unregister Slave utility helps you unregister a Slave which is no longer part
of the domain.
The utility is useful in the following scenarios:
Change in Slave's mode due to backup and restore. That is, if data is restored
•
from Standalone/Master belonging to a different domain.
When you uninstall CiscoWorks from slave.
•
Change in slave's mode, when master is not reachable. If the Master is down
•
when the Slave's mode changes, the Master will not be aware of the Slave's
mode change, when it comes up.
The Master will not receive any data from the Slave, but the Slave information
will still be present in the its registry. A redundant group (such as CS@Slave) will
still appear in the Master's Groups UI.
In the case of DCR, any device operation on Master will update the Slave list. But
the same does not happen in the case of Groups.
You can run the UnregisterSlave utility to remove any unwanted slave
information:
From the CLI, run:
NMSROOT
/bin/perl
You have to enter the hostname of the machine you want to unregister.
