Remove Subdepot

Hello all,

What would be the recommended way to remove a server as SUBDEPOT? The server has been replaced, and the new server is already configured as SUBDEPOT now.

Thank you,

You can uninstall the subdepot-package on the old server using the Empirum Management Console by right-clicking on the subdepot-package + delete-option.

Does that answer your question?

Hello Hendrik,

Thank you for your answer so far, but it doesn't satisfy me completely yet.

What I did so far: Removed the services with DBUtil and de-activated it in the Management Console. So now I can just rightclick on the server and choose 'edit\delete'? And after I can manually delete the Empirum directory on the local server?

OK - You did not mention there are PXE services on that system.
So it's a good idea to remove them via DBUTIL ;-)
Delete the server from the DBUTIL menu via delete.

But this does not delete the EmpirumSync-service on the depot and the directory structure. That's why I suggested you use the deinstallation via EMC. If you want to do it manually just deleting the files will not help: You also need to remove th Empirum services and the registry keys below HKLM\Software\matrix42 and any matrix42-related directories below "program files".
