Description
The Uninstall-HgsServer cmdlet removes a local node from a Host Guardian Service (HGS).
This cmdlet makes the following configuration changes in order to remove the HGS configuration from the additional HGS node:
- Unregisters the Attestation Service web application with the IIS service.
- Unregisters the Key Protection Service web application with the IIS service.
- Disables Just Enough Administration on the local node.
- Removes the local node from the existing failover cluster.
- Removes the local node from being a ___domain controller.
This cmdlet makes the following configuration changes in order to remove the HGS configuration from the last HGS node:
- Unregisters the Attestation Service web application with the IIS service.
- Unregisters the Key Protection Service web application with the IIS service.
- Removes the distributed network name (DNN) resource corresponding to the HGS name.
- Disables Just Enough Administration on the local node.
- Destroys the cluster on the local node.
- Removes the local node from being a ___domain controller and removes the HGS ___domain.
For more information about the scenario terms, see Security and Assurance.
Examples
Example 1: Remove the node from HGS
PS C:\> $Cred = Get-Credential
PS C:\> Uninstall-HgsServer -HgsDomainCredential $cred -LocalAdministratorPassword $secureString
This example removes the node from an existing HGS setup. If the second command removes the final node, then it also destroys the cluster.
