Removing a location from the Global Manager removes all objects created from the Global Manager that have a Global scope and are not specific to this location.

Removing a location is disruptive.

All configurations created by the Global Manager that are not specific to this location, such as groups and firewall sections with a Global scope, will be removed from the NSX Manager at this location.

Prerequisites

Before you remove a location, you must delete all objects created from the Global Manager that are specific to this location, such as tier-0 gateway, or firewall policies.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Global Manager at https://global-manager-ip-or-fqdn/.
  2. Navigate to System > Location Manager.
  3. From the location that you want to remove, click Actions > Remove.
    You see a message describing the effect of removing a location. If you have not previously removed objects created from the Global Manager that are specific to this location, such as tier-0 gateways or firewall policies, you cannot remove the location. The system automatically removes all other configurations from the NSX Manager at this location, that have a Global scope in your Federation deployment.
