How to remove unwanted node name in System management overview page

Problem

It could be due to running the netConfig script and specify node names as ip address for the 2 B2Bi A/A nodes, so the node name starting with ipaddresses are shown in SystemManagement overview.

If you further specify other name[such as host name instead of ip address] in netconfig script, then you can have unwanted node names shown in SystemManagement overview.

Resolution

1. stop B2bi

2. backup trhe database

3. to remove the these unwanted node names from the system management, run the following queries:

select * from nodedefinitions;

NODENAME HOSTNAME TYPE STARTED

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Node1_b2b hostname1 B2B 1

xx.xxx.xxx.xxx_b2b xx.xxx.xxx.xxx B2B 1

Node2_b2b hostname2 B2B 1

yy.yyy.yyy.yyy_b2b yy.yyy.yyy.yyy B2B 1

Node1_te hostname1 TE 1

Node2_te hostname2 TE 1

4- Then execute those queries to remove the unwanted node name e.g. node name started with IPaddresses:

delete from nodedefinitions where NODENAME = 'xx.xxx.xxx.xxx_b2b’;

delete from nodedefinitions where NODENAME = 'yy.yyy.yyy.yyy_b2b';

5- start B2Bi

Then the node names started with Ip addresses are removed from B2Bi SystemManagement GUI.
