You might stop using a domain or want to delete a domain at some point. To completely delete a CDI-PC domain, you need to delete the domain entry from Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services and uninstall the domain from the domain machine.
On the CDI-PC service page in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, you can delete domains that are in deregistered and offline states.
Deregistered domains
When you deregister a domain on the service page, you retain the domain on the domain machine and the domain entry on the CDI-PC service page. The domain still exists and you can register the domain again if you want to resume use of the domain.
You can clear the deregistered domain entry from the service page by deleting the domain. In this case, the domain machine still exists. To complete the domain deletion, you must then uninstall the domain. Alternately, if you uninstalled the domain after you deregistered it on the service page, you can delete the domain entry on the service page to complete the deletion.
Offline domains
Note: You can delete offline domains that are on version April 2024 or later.
A domain might appear offline in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services for multiple reasons. The impact of deleting an offline domain differs depending on the reason why the domain appears offline.
You might uninstall a domain from the domain machine without deregistering the domain in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services. The domain entry still exists. Because the domain was not deregistered, the domain appears offline when it is uninstalled and loses communication with Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services. You can delete such domains that are in offline state because you uninstalled the domain and it doesn't exist. Delete the domain entry in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services to complete the deletion.
A domain might appear offline because of a temporary loss of connectivity with Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services. Because it is in offline state, you can delete the domain from Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services. In this case, the domain still exists on the domain machine and contains the registration details. If you delete the domain entry from Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, you cannot register the domain again with these details because the domain machine still contains the previous registration information. To register the domain again, contact Informatica Global Customer Support.
A domain appears offline during an update. As part of the update process, domains are shut down and then started again when the update completes. If a domain appears offline because a domain update is in progress, you can't delete the domain.
