How to go back to standalone mode after enabling DMC in distributed mode?

I have enabled DMC in distributed mode is there a way I can come back to standalone mode.

What I did is I have selected on distributed mode and apply the changes. if we click overview than it is distributed mode.
later I got to know it is not the best way to implement DMC in Search Head in production.
Again I have click on the standalone mode and apply the changes.
Is that right way it has to change from distributed mode to standalone mode.
I can see in the overview which mode is present.

Can someone help me with this?

Thanks in advance.

That's all there is to it, just clicking standalone instead of distributed

Q) I have 100+ server I need to add it in search peers is there any way I can do it by running the script.

What kind of script do i need to write whether it is python or shell script?
