Description

The delete-node-dcom subcommand deletes a node that is enabled for communication over the Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) remote protocol from the domain. The DCOM protocol is available only on Windows systems. This subcommand does not require DCOM to be configured.

This subcommand can delete only a node that is enabled for communication over DCOM. The subcommand for deleting other types of nodes depends on the type of the node:

  • A node that is enabled for communication over secure shell (SSH) must be deleted by using the delete-node-ssh subcommand.

  • A node that is not enabled for communication must be deleted by using the delete-node-config subcommand.

To determine whether a node is enabled for communication over DCOM, use the list-nodes subcommand.

No Payara Server instances must reside on the node that is being deleted. Otherwise, the subcommand fails. Before running this subcommand, delete any instances that reside on the node by using, for example, the delete-instance subcommand or the delete-local-instance subcommand.

This subcommand is supported in remote mode only.

Options

Options for the asadmin utility. For information about these options, see the asadmin help page.

--help
-?

Displays the help text for the subcommand.

--uninstall

Specifies whether the Payara Server software is uninstalled from host that the node represents.
Possible values are as follows:

false

The Payara Server software is not uninstalled from the host (default).

true

The Payara Server software is uninstalled from the host. By default, if any node except the predefined node localhost domain resides on any host from which Payara Server software is being uninstalled, the subcommand fails. To uninstall the Payara Server software from a host on which user-defined nodes reside, set the --force option to true. If the --force option is true, the subcommand removes the entire content of the parent of the base installation directory.

--force

If --uninstall is true, specifies whether the subcommand uninstalls the Payara Server software from a host even if a user-defined node resides on the host. Possible values are as follows:

false

If a user-defined node resides on a host, the software is not uninstalled and the subcommand fails (default).
If the --force option is false, the subcommand removes only the Payara Server software files. Other content if the parent of the base installation directory, such as configuration files, are not removed.

true

The subcommand uninstalls the Payara Server software from the host even if a user-defined node resides on the host.
If the --force option is true, the subcommand removes the entire content of the parent of the base installation directory.

Operands

node-name

The name of the node to delete. The node must be enabled for communication over DCOM. Otherwise, an error occurs.
