Uninstall the module
To stop using CEM, you can uninstall the cem_windows
module. Alternatively, to stop using CEM on one or more nodes, you can declassify the nodes to
remove their association with the cem_windows
class.
CAUTION: If you uninstall CEM or declassify
one or more nodes, Puppet Enterprise (PE) no longer runs on the
affected nodes to enforce Center for Internet Security (CIS) compliance. When you
uninstall CEM or declassify a node, the node does not
revert to its pre-CEM state.
Take one of the following actions:
- To uninstall the CEM module, follow the instructions in Uninstalling modules.
- To declassify nodes, you can remove the nodes from the node group that
is associated with the
cem_windows
class. For instructions, see Remove nodes from a node group. Alternatively, to stop using CEM on an entire node group, you can remove thecem_windows
class from the node group. For instructions, see Remove classes from a node group.
