That just pushes the performance monitoring to other nodes. I am pretty sure prior to installing the GUI nodes I didn't have any "performance monitoring" and having never used it would like to get back to that state of affairs :-)

[root@gpfs0 ~]# mmperfmon config delete --all
mmperfmon: The performance monitoring configuration cannot be deleted while there are nodes designated for performance monitoring. Please remove the designation with mmchnode --noperfmon. mmperfmon: Command failed. Examine previous error messages to determine cause.

Noting that I have already attempted to designate my one remaining performance monitoring node (aka GUI node) as not doing that with mmchnode which does not seem to do anything.

Noting that the manpage for mmperfmon say for config delete --all

 removes the entire performance monitoring configuration from
 IBM Storage Scale.

I have tried upgrading the GUI node to 5.2.3 to match the rest of the system, and running the mmchnode --noperfmon on the node itself with GPFS both started and stopped. None of that made any difference :-( At least I can run mmchconfig release=LATEST now.

Interestingly mmlscluster shows the two DSS-G nodes as having a designation of "quorum-manager-perfmon" and the GUI node as having no designation. Noting the two DSS-G nodes don't have the pmcollector or pmsensors RPM's installed.

I suspect I am going to need to open a ticket for this one as something wacky is going on.
