Before deleting a host, you must:

  • Stop all components running on the host.

  • Decommission any DataNodes running on the host.

  • Move from the host any master components, such as NameNode or ResourceManager, running on the host.

  • Turn off host Maintenance Mode, if it is on.

  2. On the Host page, click Host Actions.
  3. Click Delete Host.
    The host is removed from the cluster.
