About Removing a Machine from the Cluster

This information applies to deployments that use a distributed SAS LASR Analytic Server.
This information does not apply to non-distributed deployments.
For deployments that use Teradata EDW, Greenplum DCA, or a commercial distribution of Hadoop, such as Cloudera or Hortonworks, follow the product documentation for the appliance or cluster. If it is possible to run the appliance or cluster in a degraded state, you can follow the steps to remove the host name from the grid.hosts file.
