Agent needs be removed from ART (version 9.0)

* IBM License Key Server Administration and Reporting Tool * IBM License Key Server Administration Agent As of v9.0, Agents cannot be removed from ART once been added. The old version of Agent and ART had the function of "deleting Agent directly from ART" Many customers cannot use this function after upgrading to version9.0. If the customer needs to edit or delete the Agent, they have to uninstall/reinstall Agent and ART, also drop off/recreage the DB2 database. This process is quite cumbersome and cannot provide a good user experience to customers. Customers want to restore this functionality that was present in older versions so that they can manage and run Agents and ART better and easier.

    Thank you for submitting this enhancement recommendation. The ability to remove Agents is not available (except as described above) to assure that data can be re-generated for reporting purposes. While this increases the number of steps as you describe, the benefit is that data is preserved (re-generated).
