11.8 Deleting or Unsharing a BCC-Enabled Shared NSS Pool Resource

You might need to unshare a pool resource if you decide not to cluster the pool. You might decide to delete an NSS pool if the data stored on it is no longer needed.

Consider the following guidelines when planning to delete or unshare a BCC-enabled pool resource:

All resource configuration must happen from the master node. On the Cluster Options page for iManager, connect to the Cluster object, not to Cluster Node objects. On the Storage > Pools page for iManager, connect to the master node. Run NSSMU only on the master node.
You must disable BCC for a shared NSS pool before you delete it or unshare it. This allows the pool to be removed from the list of resources kept by the peer clusters.
Make sure to offline the cluster resource before attempting to delete either the cluster resource or the clustered pool. For example, if you want to unshare a pool, offline the cluster resource for the pool before you mark the pool or the device as Not Shareable for Clustering, then you can delete the eDirectory object for the cluster resource.

WARNING:If you attempt to delete a cluster resource without first offlining it, deletion errors occur, and the data associated with the clustered pool is not recoverable.

To delete or unshare a BCC-enabled shared NSS pool resource:

In iManager, select Clusters > Cluster Options, then select the Cluster object where the shared NSS pool resource is currently active.
If the resource is on a non-master node in the cluster, migrate it to the master node by selecting the resource, then clicking Migrate and specifying the master node.
Select the shared NSS pool resource, click Properties, then select Business Continuity.
Disable BCC for the pool cluster resource, then click Apply.

For information, see Section 11.6, Disabling BCC for a Cluster Resource.

Wait for Identity Manager to synchronize the change to all peer clusters before continuing. You can check the other peer clusters to make sure that the cluster resource you BCC-disabled no longer appears in their list of resources.
Select Clusters > Cluster Options, select the shared NSS pool, then select Offline.

WARNING:If you attempt to delete a cluster resource without first offlining it, deletion errors occur, and the data associated with the clustered pool is not recoverable.

Do one of the following:

Task	Procedure
Keep the shared NSS pool to use only in the current cluster.	In iManager, select Clusters > Cluster Options, select the shared NSS pool resource, select Properties, then select Scripts. Modify the load script by removing any commands related to the BCC, then click Apply. Modify the unload script by removing any commands related to the BCC, then click Apply. Select Clusters > Cluster Options, select the shared NSS pool resource, then select Online.
Keep the NSS pool, but unshare it to use it as a non-clustered pool.	In iManager, select Storage > Pools, then select the master node of the cluster. Select the pool to view its Pool Details. Mark the pool as Not Shareable for Clustering, then click Apply. Select Clusters > Cluster Options, select the check box next the Cluster Resource object you want to delete, then click Delete.
Unshare the pool, then delete it.	In iManager, select Storage > Pools, then select the master node of the cluster. Select the pool to view its Pool Details. Mark the pool as Not Shareable for Clustering, then click Apply. Select Directory Administration > Delete Object, select the Cluster Resource object for the shared NSS pool cluster resource, then click OK. In iManager, select Storage > Pools, then select the master node of the cluster. Select the pool to view the Pool Details. Click Delete, then confirm the deletion.
