Removing a server

Removing is trust revocation, not an uninstall. The pinned certificate is cleared and Deplo never talks to that machine again. It does not reach in and remove containers, because by then it may not be able to.

Deplo prints a one-line uninstall command to run on the host if you want the agent, its Traefik and its state directory gone. See Remove or uninstall.

The machine running the control plane cannot remove itself.

Limits and gotchas

  • Health is a cache, not a gate. Past a staleness window the page shows Unknown rather than a stale green. Deploys gate on a live handshake.
  • Restarting Traefik drops connections for a moment on every app on that host.
  • Changing the address does not move anything. It only changes how Deplo dials.

If it does not work

  • The card says warning: the agent is up, Docker is not answering there. Check the Docker service on the host.
  • A restart action fails: the agent is unreachable. Health and readiness will say so.
