When a service provisioned by ASM is no longer required, it is important to decommission the resources. Therefore, the resources
can be provisioned for future services.
The steps to accomplish this task dier based on the type of resource component provisioned. For hosts provisioned by ASM, the
default behavior when a service is deleted to turn o the host. For server, extra cleanup is required after turning o the server. For
