Purge Red Hat Storage Console

Tool for purging Red Hat Storage Console configuration and reinitializing associated nodes.

Usage

The rhscon-purge script should be ran on the RHSC host you wish to purge. It requires no arguments, but accepts some optional ones. Root is required.

# ./rhscon-purge.py [-h] [-n] [--no-node-clean]

• -h, --help: Print the help page and exit
• -n NODE[,NODE2], --nodes NODE[,NODE2]: Define a FQDN or list of comma-delimited FQDNs which currently serve as nodes in a cluster. rhscon-purge will attempt to determine nodes associated with an RHSC automatically. This option should only be used to specify additional nodes that need to be cleaned, that did not clean successfully following automated cleaning.
• --no-node-clean: Do not clean the storage nodes, only clean the local configuration from the RHSC node.

It's recommended to attempt an automated cleanup before specifying any nodes yourself via the -n, --nodes flag. To use the flag, comma-delimit FQDNs, for example:

# ./rhscon-purge.py -n osd1.example.com,osd2.example.com,mon3.example.com

What does it do?

rhscon-purge is based on the Red Hat Storage Console 2 purge guide found here: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2944461
