This guide was written with the general idea of undoing the steps from our VM Setup guide going in reverse order.
Step 1 : Disable the host on Zabbix
This avoids having to create a maintenance period for the next step. This can be done 2 ways:
- 1st way : In Zabbix > Configuration > Hosts find the VM you want to disable, in the “status” column you should see “Enabled”, click “Enabled” to disable the VM you’ll get a confirmation prompt.
- 2nd way : In Zabbix > Configuration > Hosts, find the VM you want to disable, click its name, a configuration panel appears, uncheck the “Enabled” checkbox
Step 2 : Remove VM from HA group
In Proxmox
- 1. From your VM panel go to More > Manage HA in the top right corner
- 2. Set Request State to “stopped”
Step 3 : Undo IPA enrollment
This step can only be performed by the First Responder
- 1. Select the desired hostname and click delete
- 2. This will open a modal, make sure to check the option to remove all A, AAAA, SSHFP and PTR records
Step 4 : Remove all references
Remove any reference of your VM from our DNS repo
Step 5 : Remove the vm on proxmox
quick note: make sure to note down the vm's id as it will be needed for step 6
- 1. From your vm panel go to More > Remove, in the top right corner
- 2. This will open a modal, make sure to check all boxes and confirm the id of the VM you’re removing
Step 6 : Purge any backup data
- 1. Backups are stored in zombie.maxmaton.nl at the time this guide is written, because this is a third party service we can not purge the data ourselves. Ask Max to purge backup data providing him with the id of the VM you want to purge backup data for.
