Hi,
You also will have to delete AFTD devices created on those two Storage
Nodes. If you have RD device, it will consume SN license (one per host).
Also you might have observed, if there is a remote device created on a
host, that host would automatically appear under 'Storage Nodes' list in
NMC >> devices.
Thanks!
