If you have deleted the Managed server with stgxfwcmdelsrv (Server information deletion command), take the following actions to reflect to the Web Console depending on how the agent installed in the deleted Managed Server is used:
If both of AdvancedCopy Manager's agent and Storage Cruiser's agent are used:

On the Web Console, delete the Managed Server that you have deleted.
If the Exchange Server has a cluster configuration, delete the Managed Server transactions and the Management Server transactions from the Exchange Server.
Refer to the ETERNUS SF Cluster Environment Setup Guide for more information about cancelling cluster settings.
Cancel the hardware provider registration on both the Exchange server and the backup server.
Refer to eternus_provider (Provider registration/deletion command) for more information about how to cancel the hardware provider registration.
Note
Do not cancel the hardware provider registration if there are other storage groups on the backup and Exchange servers where operations may use this hardware provider registration.
