Deleting Remote Machines

If you are informed that a remote machine has been removed from the network, you must delete that remote machine from your local machine. When you delete a remote machine, you also delete any remote subscribers who are associated with that remote machine. Machine information and subscriber information are not removed completely from the system until a nightly audit runs.

Because deleting a machine removes the remote machine and the remote subscribers assigned to that machine, before you proceed make sure that you really want to delete the machine, and then make sure that you enter the correct remote machine name. If you do make a mistake when removing a remote machine, you can restore the deleted remote machine before the nightly audit runs.

Note: You cannot delete the local machine but you can change its settings.

To delete a remote machine:

 

1. Log in to the INTUITY AUDIX command prompt screen.
   

   The system displays the AUDIX command prompt screen.

2. Enter remove machine machine_name at the enter command: prompt.

Note: If you do not know the names of the remote machines, enter list machines at the enter command: prompt. The system displays a list of all machines administered on the system.

The system displays page 1 of the Remote Machine Profile screen and prompts you to press F3 (Enter) to execute the command.

3. Press F3 (Enter) to remove the machine.

The cursor returns to the command line, and the system displays the following message:

Command Successfully Completed.

4. Enter another administrative command at the enter command: prompt or enter exit.
