nbdecommission - "partial" decommissions, skipping OST disk

Hi,

Understood. What you can do is use the 'nbdecommision -oldserver SERVERNAME -list_ref' command. It would show you where there are references to the media server in question so you can action the specific cleanup.

It might help a bit.

See output below.
