7. Deleting a Host from a Cluster
Deleting a host removes the host from the cluster. Before deleting a host, you must complete the following prerequisites:
- Stop all components running on the host. 
- Decommission any DataNodes running on the host. 
- Move from the host any master components, such as NameNode or ResourceManager, running on the host. 
- Turn Off Maintenance Mode, if necessary, for the host.
