Authority
You must have delete and search authority for the hosts instance object. By default, the DomainAdministrator and InstanceAdministrator roles have this authority. For more information about access control lists, see streamtool getacl.
Description
Before the command removes resources from the instance, it verifies that the instance and the relevant jobs can remain healthy without these resources. If there are any management services on these resources, there must be standby services that are configured and available for the instance to remain healthy. For the jobs to remain healthy, there must be another resource in the instance that meets the placement constraints of all processing elements that are currently running on the resource.
Hosts that are running management services cannot be removed unless standby services are configured and available.
You cannot remove resources that are configured as a result of resource specifications (that is to say, by using the --numresources option). To remove resource specifications from an instance, use the streamtool rmresourcespec command.
The streamtool rmhost command performs a controlled shutdown of the processing elements and host controller service on the resource. The processing elements are relocated. If one or more processing elements cannot be relocated, the command fails.
The resource is removed from the instance's configuration.
If you specify multiple resources in this command, each resource is removed sequentially and independently. If one of the resources cannot be removed, this failure does not affect the removal of other resources.
Options and arguments
- --continue
This option is deprecated and has no effect.
- -d, --domain-id did
Specifies the domain identifier.
If you do not specify this option, InfoSphere® Streams uses the domain name that is set in the STREAMS_DOMAIN_ID environment variable. By default, that domain name is StreamsDomain. If you are using the interactive streamtool interface, it uses the name of the active domain for the current streamtool session or else it prompts you for the domain name.
The active domain for the current streamtool session is set every time that you successfully run a streamtool command with a -d or --domain-id option. Alternatively, you can run the streamtool domain command in the interactive interface.
- --embeddedzk
Specifies to use the embedded copy of ZooKeeper. This option is not supported within the interactive streamtool interface.
If you are not using the interactive streamtool interface and you do not specify either this option or the --zkconnect option, InfoSphere Streams uses the ZooKeeper connection that is associated with the active domain or the domain that is specified in the --domain-id option. InfoSphere Streams determines which connection maps to the domain by using cached information about the domains. In this scenario, if the domain identifier is not unique in the InfoSphere Streams configuration cache, the command fails.
- --force
This option is deprecated and has no effect.
- -h, --help
Specifies to show the command syntax.
- -i, --instance-id iid
Specifies the instance identifier.
If you do not specify this option, InfoSphere Streams uses the instance identifier that is set in the STREAMS_INSTANCE_ID environment variable. By default, that instance identifier is StreamsInstance. If you are using the interactive streamtool interface, it tries to use an instance ID that you specified in a previous command. If no such value is found, the command uses the STREAMS_INSTANCE_ID environment variable. Alternatively, you can run the streamtool instance command in the interactive interface.
- --noprompt
Specifies to suppress confirmation prompts.
- resourceID
Specifies a resource identifier, which varies depending on the resource manager. For example, it might be a host name or IP address.
- --trace level
Specifies the trace setting. The following valid levels are listed in order of increasing verbosity, which is to say that the first level in the list generates the least amount of information:
- off
- error
- warn
- info
- debug
- trace
- -U, --User userid
Specifies an InfoSphere Streams user ID that has authority to run the command.
- -v,--verbose level
Specifies to provide more detailed command output. The vebosity level can be from 0 to 3 where each increment provides more detailed output.
- --zkconnect host:port
The name of one or more host and port pairs that specify the configured ZooKeeper servers. This option is not supported within the interactive streamtool interface.
If you are not using the interactive streamtool interface and you do not specify this option, InfoSphere Streams tries to use:- The --embeddedzk option
- The value from the STREAMS_ZKCONNECT environment variable
- A ZooKeeper connection string that is derived from cached information about the current domain.
