Hi all, Since GOCDB3, one cannot set monitoring "off" for a node declared in GOCDB under a production site. Putting a downtime before removing the node will not help more as the downtime disappears as soon as the node is remove, and then alarms will be raised on COD dashboard. But normaly CODs are aware the node is no more existing: they should just check that the node is remove both from GOCDB and BDII; if this is the case no ticket is created against the site.
