Abstract

Removing building blocks from partitions to which they have been bound is disclosed. A building block of a platform is removed from a partition of the platform by first halting activity by the partition on the building block. A first partition identifier of the building block indicates the partition of the building block. The building block joined the partition in a masterless manner. The resources of the building block are withdrawn from the partition, and the building block is deauthorized from the platform.
