I had limited success with splitting my resin application into multiple containers - it worked but I was getting erroneous service restarts due to (I think) resource constraints on my Pis (using 3 B+ and Pi Zero) so I went back to a monolithic all-in-one application which is now running with good stability.
I’ve rolled out the new code across the entire fleet but I’m still seeing the old service names listed when I go to add a service variable. What do I need to do to tidy that up?
Hi @klutchell, @chrisallmark, thanks for reporting this. Right now there’s no way you can remove services from this dropdown, and instead we currently show all the services you’ve ever deployed for this application on the variables page.
I think you’re right that this isn’t quite right though - we’re going to discuss this internally and look at improving that. Thanks for the feedback!
We created here an issue when this was reported first. Due other priorities this have never been implemented. We will try to put this issue again in the loop and we will keep you updated.
Let us know if we can help you with anything else.
I still see a similar issue, I have renamed my services, but now both services show up in the variable drop-down. I verified that the services are not deployed on other devices - is there any way to remove the previously deployed services?
Hello @RobertBakker if there is an available release with these services we still show the services in the list as it’s possible for you to move devices from your fleet to that release.
I didn’t realize that having an old release in the system with an old service name caused this behaviour - I guess it makes sense that it behaves this way. I can delete the old releases as a workaround.
