I have a remote node that I am trying to remove that has already been physically removed, error message is - "api error (status = 400: error deleting token: connection failed: client error (Connect))"

Thats the error message that I receive from the GUI and pretty sure I will have to clean this up from the CLI but not sure which command to use, thanks.
 
Hi @bishoptf ,
Have you checked the cluster guide? https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pvecm.html#_remove_the_cluster_node


Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox - https://www.blockbridge.com/proxmox
This is not a cluster, just individual nodes that have been brought into datacenter manager. I came across that command but since it wasn't a cluster wasn't sure if that was still the process. I assume that is the process for none cluster nodes also?

Sorry, I missed the forum name - that documentation/procedure is for the PVE Cluster.

If you have collection of single nodes under PDM, take a look at this thread:
