Unextending a Hierarchy

The LifeKeeper Unextend Resource Hierarchy option removes a complete hierarchy, including all of its resources, from a single server. This is different than the Delete Resource Hierarchy selection which removes a hierarchy from all servers.

When using Unextend Resource Hierarchy, the server where the existing hierarchy is to be removed from is referred to as the target server.

The Unextend Resource Hierarchy selection can be used from any LifeKeeper server that has active LifeKeeper communications paths to the target server.

1. On the Edit menu, select Resource, then Unextend Resource Hierarchy. For each of the options that follow, click Help for an explanation of each choice.

2. Select the Target Server from which you wish to remove the resource hierarchy, and click Next.

3. Select the Hierarchy to Unextend and click Next. A window will display a message verifying the server and tag you have specified to be unextended.

4. Click Unextend. A window will display a message confirming the unextend operation.

5. Click Done to return to the GUI status display.
