Media Server Uninstallation¶

This procedure is to remove a media server permanently.

On XIVO¶

Unplug media server from XDS by removing it from webi (see XiVO Configuration):

remove media server

remove template line

Clean connection permissions from all places and apply new configuration

After the removal, inactive database replication slot will remain in the database. It shouldn’t cause any problems. If a media server with the same name will be installed, it will be dropped by the mds install script. But you can clean it even so (from XiVO database):

select * from pg_replication_slots;
select pg_drop_replication_slot('slot_name');

On Media Server¶

Only reinstallation is supported.

Media Server Reinstallation¶

On XIVO¶

All settings can remain if they are still valid - if the new media server has the same name and IP as a previous (for example crashed) media server.

On Media Server¶

If the mds install script failed with error, you can re-run it.

But to fully reinstall media server, you need to reinstall xivo-mds-installer package and recreate database on the media server.

Uninstall MDS:

xivo-service stop all
apt purge xivo-mds-installer
rm -rf /var/lib/postgresql/11

Reinstall MDS: the custom.env will be recreated with new values:

apt install xivo-mds-installer
xivo-service start all
xivo-dcomp up -d

At the end you need also to reinstall the XiVO Main ssh public key for File Synchronization:

XIVO_HOST=$(grep XIVO_HOST /etc/docker/mds/custom.env | awk -F "=" '/1/ {print $2}')
mkdir -p /root/.ssh
wget https://$XIVO_HOST/ssh-key --no-check-certificate -O /root/.ssh/rsync_xds.pub
cat /root/.ssh/rsync_xds.pub >> /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
apt install -y rsync
