17.5.3 Unregistering a Cloning Image

This section explains how to unregister cloning images.

Use the following procedure to unregister cloning images.

  1. Right-click the target image pool in the orchestration tree, and select [Unregister] from the popup menu.

    The [Unregister a Resource] dialog is displayed.

  2. Click <OK>.

    The cloning image is unregistered.

From the command-line, execute rcxadm pool unregister.
For details on the rcxadm pool unregister command, refer to "3.10 rcxadm pool" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE".

Note

  • When unregistering a cloning image, a_numeric_value is added at the end of the image name to change its name as follows:

    Image name after unregistration: Image_name_before unregistration_Numeric_value

    The image name will not be changed after unregistration.

  • When releasing registration, as image names will be changed, execute the rcxadm image list command to check the creation time and comment before performing unregistration. Images can be identified using this method.

    For details on the rcxadm image list command, refer to "4.1 rcxadm image" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE".

  • Unregistered images of virtual L-Servers can be used in the same way as when they are collected from templates of server virtualization software.

    For details, refer to "17.5.1 Collecting and Registering Cloning Images".

  • Before unregistering a cloning image, make sure that the image is not used in image information of L-Platform templates. Unregistering a cloning image that is used in image information causes the following effects.

    • On the image management window of the [Template] Tab, the corresponding image information becomes unable to edit.

    • Deployment using the L-Platform template that uses the corresponding image information becomes impossible.

    • For a reconfiguration of an L-Platform, addition of a server by using the corresponding image information becomes impossible.
