Cannot delete service from R77.30 Dashboard

Hello friends,

I am doing some clean-up of not needed services on management. Suddenly I got stucked on this one:

Do someone know where I need to go in order to remove it from all 4 above mentioned rules ? Looks like something related to EndPoint, but we are not using it at all.

Environment: R77.30 MDS

Thank you for any hint.

Kind regards,

So the issue was solved and object has been deleted.

This procedure is valid only for SMS ! MDS and CMA is not supported (the only way how to get rid of it is to delete reference in GuiDBedit tool).

All what has to be done on SMS is to activate "Endpoint Policy Management", install database, connect via SmartEndpoint application and delete following 2 rules:

I have no idea why this was in place, but it might be due to very old environment deployed about in 2010 year ...

Thank you everyone for your time, the story can be closed 🙂

Kind regards,

they seem to be built-in and based on default funcionality, are you really trying to get a rid of them or it is just an obstruction to your sensitive eyes?no sure but you could most probably delete them by GBedit (DBedit) - have you tried this? IF they claim to be none-removalbe I'm not 100% you could delete them really.

The story behind this is that I am going migrate to R80.20 and due to DHCP legacy services I am getting warning to use new DHCP services. In fact this service is simple udp_68 port which was already created since R76.

I have changed the port (and name, as you can see :P) as I am doing it in LAB environment, but I am curious where in the hell I need to go to delete it... This service is 100% removable.

Didnt try GuiDBedit, good hint.

I am currently upgrading to R80.20 and once the upgrade is done I will check this service in SmartConsole.

I will revert back to R77.30 after some checks.

Were you able to identify the actual rules they are present in by UIDs?

They look and sound like build-in core Actions, not services and if I have to guess, they'll be in the implied rules.

Why you don‘t  leave the „DHCP legacy services“ as they are. The message from the upgrade process will be a warning only.

you can migrate to R80.20 and then use the new DHCP services instead of the old one if needed.

Here is how it looks from R80.20:

Where I can access application EndpointManager ?

Doubleclick nor right/left click are not working (no options).

You may not be able to, if you do not have "EndPoint Management" blade enabled on your management server.

The application that is managing it, from my limited understanding, is the "SmartEndpoint" that you should find next to a SmartConsole in the R80.20 Program Group launch menu.

I do have EndPoint Management blade activated. I did it in R77.30, before upgrading to R80.20. It wasnt activated before.

"SmartEndpoint" is grayed out:

In case I try to manually connect to EndpointManager.exe from R80.20 folder, I am getting this...

Looks like I finally find it - not in my environment, but in this YouTube video. There (at around 02:00) you can see that DHCP services are used in some rule. This is exactly what I searched for. Anyway, I cannot access EndPoint from some unknown reason...

Another related YouTube video shows how to activate Endpoint.

Tried to de-activate Endpoint Policy Management blade, install database, re-enable blade again, and voala:

Thank you for wasting my time 😄

I will give it last change to deploy SMS, import database and try it once again, without MDS/CMA...

I think a TAC case might be helpful.

The original database was gathered from R77.30 SMS, but in my LAB I performed migration from SMS to dedicated CMA. It could be that once SMS is up and running with original database, I can access SmartEndpoint and finally check rules where affected services should be in place 🙂

I will keep you informed, at the moment database is importing.
