update host configuration

[zhangxi]

I did mistake by adding a parent host when configured a host. Now I can not remove this parent host from configuration, and can not delete this host neither.
What should I do? I prefer working on commands.
Thanks.

Did you try the following?

Code: Select all

CCM->Hosts->Modify->Manage Parents->Remove (from "Assigned")->Close->Save->Apply Configuration

[sreinhardt]

What order are you attempting to remove the configurations? Likely it should go something like:

remove parent from the child host config.
attempt to remove parent services
attempt to remove parent host
attempt to remove child services
attempt to remove child host.

Also can you post the results of a write and verify config please.

Thanks.
I did mistake. I put parent and child on the same host. So now, I can not remove child and parent.
Is there a way to modify configuration files?
