Making a Device Obsolete
You can make an active device obsolete from its default view for a device or server page. When a device is made obsolete, its licenses are unmapped and returned to the pool, and it becomes unable to acquire new licenses.
Important: Obsolete status is permanent. Obsolete devices cannot be re-activated.
Tip:Limitations exist for auto-provisioned servers. Auto-provisioned servers cannot be moved, made obsolete, have a new account assigned, or have their licenses removed.
