Managed Instances

From the main navigation select Hub Management > Instances.

Quick Filters​

The quick filters make it easier to find specific instances when you are working with many items. You can show instances with errors or warnings, only connected or disconnected instances, and only licensed or unlicensed instances. Use Tags when you want to filter by environment, team, or any other tag convention you use.

Per-Instance Actions​

Each instance has an Actions menu with options to:

  • Edit Details: Customize the instance title or description
  • Edit Tags: Apply tags such as organization, dept or environment.
  • Add To Dashboard: Add the instance to the dash.certifytheweb.com dashboard
  • Remove From Hub: Remove (forget) the instance from the hub.
  • Settings: Navigate to the target instance settings.

Use Remove From Hub carefully, because it deletes that joined instance from hub management and related tags, role assignments etc.

When the instance is connected, the hub also tells it to forget its stored hub joining key and hub address, and the instance disconnects. It will not rejoin unless it is joined to the hub again. If the instance is not connected, or is running an older version which does not support this, the hub shows a warning: that instance still holds its joining key and will register with the hub again when it next connects, so remove the hub joining key from the instance itself.

An instance which is joined to the hub using environment variables (CERTIFY_MANAGEMENT_HUB, CERTIFY_MANAGEMENT_HUB_CLIENT_ID and CERTIFY_MANAGEMENT_HUB_CLIENT_SECRET) will join again while those are set, so remove them from the instance's configuration as well.
