Hi @gkas99 

Do you want to revert to single site or distributed search?

All config for SHC is found under the [clustering] stanza in server.conf on each SH. You could open server.conf, remove the config for clustering and restart. This will give you a blank slate to configre the SH however you like.

If you want to go back to single site, the command above you provided will work, just remove the -site reference.
