Need to remove Appdynamics Agents permanently in On premises

[sathish_kumar1]

I tried removing the Appdynamics agents permanently for few machines. but am getting an below error stating.

Only orphaned machine agents will be deleted.
Do you want to continue ?

Also i stopped the services and removed the folders from the server.

What are the steps to delete permanantly from the dashboard.

Essentially what that message is saying is you still have a Tier and a Node associated with that agent so it doesn't want to delete it and orphan all that data associated with it. You're probably in the right place which is to click the cog wheel in the top right and then click on "AppDynamics Agents." Try removing the Tier and Node it's associated with and then deleting it.
