When a Virtual Server or Physical Server is no longer needed for a Project or an Application, it needs to be decommissioned to free up resources.

  • Apparently there is a 2 week "Cooling Off Process" in case someone changes their mind. During this period the server is powered off but is left intact.
  • Software needs to be Uninstalled
  • Monitoring needs to be stopped (Can be Automated)
  • Agents need to be Uninstalled (Can be Automated)
  • Server needs to be powered down (Can be Automated)
  • Virtual Resources need to be returned to the pools
  • Physical Servers need to be removed from the Racks.
  • CMDB needs to be updated.
