# Removing secondary Geo sites **(PREMIUM SELF)**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Secondary** sites can be removed from the Geo cluster using the Geo administration page of the **primary** site. To remove a **secondary** site:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Go to **Admin Area > Geo** (`/admin/geo/nodes`).
|
||
|
|
1. Select the **Remove** button for the **secondary** site you want to remove.
|
||
|
|
1. Confirm by selecting **Remove** when the prompt appears.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once removed from the Geo administration page, you must stop and uninstall the **secondary** site. For each node on your secondary Geo site:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Stop GitLab:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```shell
|
||
|
|
sudo gitlab-ctl stop
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Uninstall GitLab:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```shell
|
||
|
|
# Stop gitlab and remove its supervision process
|
||
|
|
sudo gitlab-ctl uninstall
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Debian/Ubuntu
|
||
|
|
sudo dpkg --remove gitlab-ee
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Redhat/Centos
|
||
|
|
sudo rpm --erase gitlab-ee
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once GitLab has been uninstalled from each node on the **secondary** site, the replication slot must be dropped from the **primary** site's database as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. On the **primary** site's database node, start a PostgreSQL console session:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```shell
|
||
|
|
sudo gitlab-psql
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE:
|
||
|
|
Using `gitlab-rails dbconsole` will not work, because managing replication slots requires superuser permissions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Find the name of the relevant replication slot. This is the slot that is specified with `--slot-name` when running the replicate command: `gitlab-ctl replicate-geo-database`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sql
|
||
|
|
SELECT * FROM pg_replication_slots;
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Remove the replication slot for the **secondary** site:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sql
|
||
|
|
SELECT pg_drop_replication_slot('<name_of_slot>');
|
||
|
|
```
