Deactivate a compute node

Use this procedure to deactivate an ESX cluster or KVM compute node.

See About Compute Nodes.

Prerequisites 

  • Minimum required privileges: Infrastructure administrator

  • The compute node is activated.

  • No virtual machine instances are deployed on the ESX cluster or KVM compute node. If instances are deployed, then you must remove the instances and redeploy them on a different compute node before you can deactivate the ESX cluster or KVM compute node. See Delete instance.

Deactivating an ESX cluster or KVM compute node

  1. From the main menu, select Compute Nodes.

  2. Select the ESX cluster or KVM compute node you want to deactivate.

  3. Select Actions→Deactivate.

    The Deactivate window opens.

  4. Click Deactivate.

    To exit without deactivating the cluster or compute node, click Cancel.

  5. Verify that the ESX cluster or KVM compute node appears in a gray Unknown state on the Compute Node overview screen.
