Monitoring with a CA Standard Monitor › Delete a CA Standard Monitor

Delete a CA Standard Monitor

Delete a CA Standard monitoring device to remove it as a source of response time data. When you delete a monitoring device:

• Any servers that were pinned to the corresponding monitor feed are unpinned, and another monitor feed is automatically assigned. It can take up to 10 minutes to update the monitor feed assignment.
• Existing data is preserved for reporting purposes.

If you have pinned servers to a monitor feed, and you want to continue monitoring server traffic while the monitoring device is temporarily offline, consider the following options:

• Pin the servers to another monitor feed before you take the monitoring device offline. When you move the monitoring device back online, pin the appropriate servers to the monitor feed.
• Delete the monitoring device. Another monitor feed is automatically assigned, but it can take up to 10 minutes to update the monitor feed assignment.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Administration page.
2. Click Data Monitoring, Monitoring Devices in the Show Me menu.
3. Click to delete a CA Standard Monitor from the ADA Monitoring Devices List.

   Note that the Standard Monitor type includes both the CA Standard Monitor and the CA Virtual Systems Monitor. If necessary, verify the IP address of the monitor.

4. In the Delete Monitoring Device Confirmation, click Continue with Delete to delete the monitoring device.
