Disabling the NIOS Grid Connector Service

You can remove the imported IPAM data from the Infoblox Portal by disabling the NIOS Grid Connector. When you disable the NIOS Grid Connector on the respective NIOS-X Server for a Grid, all imported IPAM data for that Grid is removed. When the NIOS Grid Connector is disabled, the imported data is removed only if there is no other NIOS-X Server having this service enabled.

To disable the NIOS Grid Connector service, complete the following:

From the Infoblox Portal, click Configure > Servers.
Select the particular NIOS-X Server and click Edit.
On the Creating NIOS-X Servers page, configure the following:
- Applications & Services > SERVICES: Toggle NIOS Grid Connector to Disabled.
Click Save & Close to save the details or click Cancel to exit.

Note

If you change the NIOS-X Server configuration for the NIOS Grid Connector that results in a change of Grid ID, due to database reset, grid member joining the grid, or license renewal, the import workflow for this grid may not work as it is tied to the unique Grid ID. In order to fix this, disable NIOS Grid Connector and change the NIOS-X Server configuration as required. Thereafter, enable the NIOS Grid Connector.
