Removing instance patterns​

When you remove an instance pattern, the instance will not be removed on the deployment hosts. Removal on the deployment host must be done manually.

Example for manual removal​

To completely remove a nevisAuth instance, execute the following commands on the target host:

systemctl stop nevisauth@<name>
systemctl disable nevisauth@<name>
nevisauth inst remove <name>

<name>: The sanitized pattern name. Sanitized means that spaces and other special characters are replaced by underscore.

Removing Multiple Patterns​

Removing multiple patterns at once can be done via batch actions. Perform the following steps to remove patterns in batch:

  1. Select multiple patterns.
  2. Click on the batch actions menu.
  3. Click Remove selected action.
  4. Confirm the warning message.
