Remove a Node
This page will walk you through the steps to remove a node from your FaunaDB Enterprise cluster. While you can remove multiple nodes at a time, we talk about it below like you’re just removing one.
Remove Node from FaunaDB Enterprise Cluster
To remove a node from your Enterprise cluster:
-
From any node in your Enterprise cluster, use the
status
admin command to get the node’s Host ID:faunadb-admin status
-
Use the returned Host ID to remove the node with the
remove
admin command:faunadb-admin remove »ID«
-
Verify that the removal was successful by running:
faunadb-admin status
When your node has been successfully removed, you will no longer see it in the status list.
-
Shut down FaunaDB on the node you would like to remove using whatever method you prefer (supervisor, systemd, init, etc.) to stop the process.
