Monitoring with a CA GigaStor › Unassign a CA GigaStor

Unassign a CA GigaStor

Unassign a CA GigaStor to remove it as a source of response time data. When you unassign 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.

If you have pinned servers to a GigaStor monitor feed, and you want to continue monitoring server traffic while the GigaStor is temporarily unassigned, consider the following option:

• Pin the servers to another monitor feed before you unassign the GigaStor. When you reassign the GigaStor, pin the appropriate servers to the GigaStor monitor feed.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Administration page.
2. Click Data Monitoring, Monitoring Devices in the Show Me menu.
3. Scroll to the ADA Monitoring Device List and click to edit the CA Standard Monitor or CA Multi-Port Monitor to which the CA GigaStor is assigned.
4. Click Monitor Devices in the third Show Me menu.
5. Click in the Assigned Device List to unassign the CA GigaStor.
6. Click Continue with Unassigning at the prompt to proceed.

   The management console updates the Assigned Device List.

7. Click the link to synchronize monitoring devices with the current client network, server subnet, and application definitions on the management console.

   Monitoring devices temporarily stop monitoring application performance during synchronization. To minimize interruptions to monitoring, complete all of your changes before synchronizing monitoring devices.
