Ghost Service

Post by BenGatewood »

(Accidentally posted this in the wrong place - sorry)

Hi All,

I created a couple of services for a host and then decided to remove them as they weren't quite right. I deleted them from CCM which completed successfully and the config loads with 0 errors or warnings but yet when I look in XI, they're still there. When I wrote out the config files, they are in there but they don't show up in CCM. I really, really don't want to have to delete the host and start over - any ideas?

XI 2014R1.1 running on 64 bit CentOS 6.5

Thanks!

Thanks for that but unfortunately I had already found and tried that - made no difference (should have mentioned sorry). I've just done it again and they're still there.

Just been checking and it seems like I may have a larger problem in that I can't seem to delete *any* of the services I've tried. What should I be looking for in the logs etc?

Please upgrade to XI 2014r1.2. There was a delete bug that was fixed in 1.2.
