To identify which cluster nodes are inactive and should be removed:

  1. Run the cluster_info command.
    /opt/pingidentity/ase/bin/cli.sh cluster_info -u admin -p 
    cluster id : ase_cluster
    cluster nodes
    127.0.0.1:8020 active
    1.1.1.1:8020 active
    2.2.2.2:8020 inactive
    172.17.0.4:8020(tasks.aseservice) active
    172.17.0.5:8020(tasks.aseservice) inactive
    tasks.aseservice2:8020 not resolved
  2. To delete the inactive node, run the delete_cluster_node command:
    /opt/pingidentity/ase/bin/cli.sh delete_cluster_node <IP:Port>

    From the previous example, to remove inactive cluster nodes 2.2.2.2:8020 and 172.17.05:8020, it would look like the following:

    /opt/pingidentity/ase/bin/cli.sh delete_cluster_node 2.2.2.2:8020
    /opt/pingidentity/ase/bin/cli.sh delete_cluster_node 172.17.05:8020
