Deleting a Node from a Cluster
When a node in a My webMethods Server cluster is no longer in use, you should delete it from the cluster by doing the following:
*To delete a node from a cluster
1. From another node, stop the node to be deleted from the cluster, as described in Restarting or Stopping Individual Nodes in a Cluster.
2. To retrieve the cluster.xml file from the My webMethods Server database, type this command:
mws getconfig cluster.xml
3. Open the cluster.xml file in a text editor, which you can find at this location:
Software AG_directory \MWS\server\serverName\config
4. In the cluster.xml file, locate the node to be deleted, remove the entire <Component> element for this node, and save the file. For example:
<Component class="com.webmethods.portal.system.cluster.impl.Server"
    enabled="true" name="nodeName">
.
.
.
</Component>
5. To deploy the revised cluster.xml file to the My webMethods Server database, type this command:
mws putconfig cluster.xml
6. Delete the cluster.xml file from the \serverName\config directory.
7. On the Cluster Administration page, reload the cluster configuration, or restart the cluster, as described in Restarting or Stopping All Nodes in a Cluster.
