Hi Yedidyah,
I am thinking to do below -
# hosted-engine --set-maintenance --mode=global # hosted-engine --clean-metadata --host-id=<old_host_id> --force-clean"
I hope it is safe and tested ?
It is tested, and it's "safe" as in "Does what it's designed to do". It's definitely not "safe" as in "riskless" - if you make a mistake, you risk damage. I didn't use it myself recently, and do not remember details anymore. It's definitely not something that you are supposed to use/need casually. If unsure, and if your environment is important to you (not just some test/dev/learn thing), I warmly suggest to try this first on a test env (can be done with nested-kvm VMs, no need for physical machines for this). That said, others on this list (and elsewhere) did use it successfully, and I recommend again to search for examples/reports/experiences. Good luck and best regards,
Thanks

Hi All,
How to clean stale hosted engine from the database. I want to remove host id=3
Perhaps by using the options '--clean_metadata' and '--host-id' of the command 'hosted-engine'. You can check documentation, list archives, etc. for details.
Good luck and best regards, -- Didi
