Removing a VSX cluster from Management

DR_74 — Sat, 25 May 2024 09:40:32 GMT

Hi,

We have a Management Server with several managed gateways .

We have removed a VSX cluster from the network (the cluster has been unplugged).

Is it still possible to remove the VSX cluster (and all the VS created on it) from the Management server ?

Thank you

Last time I did this was back in R77.30, but process was same as for regular gateway, just had to make sure it was not being used anywhere and also removed one reference I found in guidbedit.

Not sure if its same now though...

Best,

Andy

If there was a SIC you could follow:

https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R81.10/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R81.10_VSX_AdminGuide/Topics-VSXG/CLI/vsx_util-remove_member.htm?Highlight=remove

But there is no, so then I would suggest to make sure objects is not used in Smart Console and just remove it like a normal gateway. Also make sure you remove all Virtual Devices from the relevant VSX cluster (like Virtual systems).
