NDB Maintenance Window – Part III

This is part II of the NDB Maintenance Window blog series. See the other part(s) via:

• NDB Maintenance Widow – Part I
• NDB Maintenance Widow – Part II
• NDB Maintenance Window – Part III

The third post about Maintenance Window will be about how to remove a DB Server VM. This can definitely be done and let’s take Maintenance Window Demo01 which contains two DB Server VMs (pg01vm & pgvm02) as an example. No comments about the different naming conventions please 🙂

To remove one or more DB Server VMs from a Maintenance Windows, start with going to DB Server VMs view to remove one or more DB Server VMs from a Maintenance Window then,

1. Click the checkbox next to the DB Server VMs you’d like to remove from a Maintenance Window
2. Click Actions and select Maintenance
   
3. Unselect the checkbox “Operating System Patching” and click Update.
   
4. Check the Demo01 Maintenance Window and now it’s empty.
   

There is also an option to remove a single DB Server VM by accessing (click) the DB Server VM view and click Actions and select Maintenance. From there you perform the same steps as above.
