Removing data for disqualified satellite

When the satellite disqualify nodes, it will stop to communicate with them, include sending Bloom filter to delete pieces to trash.
So, data will remain, until you manually delete it.
You can do a graceful exit from working satellites, unless your node suspended on them. So, please fix the suspension issue and you can invoke a graceful exit.

But that’s the choice of the satellite, is it? It still could communicate.
Actually I think 2 things would be helpful: 1. In the disqualification message to add which folder on the node the satellite data can be found and that they need to be deleted manually.
2. An option for the SNO to request some kind of “final” bloom filter from the satellite aafter disqualification removing the data in question.

Does this mean, that if a node is disqualified from say two satellites, it’s safe to just manually delete the data from those two satellites corresponding folders?

Yes. You can delete any related data to the satellite which has disqualified your node.

Cheers to that, thank you
