Move / Relocate device

Is it possible to move assigned devices to another building/floor/site, or do they have to be deleted from inventory and rediscovered? When I try to assign a site to a device that is already assigned, the location is grayed out and cannot be modified.

I don't think it can be done without removing in order .. remove host on-boarding config, remove from Fabric, unprovision (delete from provision device list). What are you trying to accomplish eventually, there might be easier way

-hope this helps-

You should not have to completely remove the device from your inventory.  Prior to attempting to move it from one site to another ensure that you have removed it from your original fabric.  You should then be able to assign it elsewhere.  HTH!

I currently have a switch that is in the inventory and assigned to a location, but is not added to the fabric. I am unable to relocate this switch using Actions>Assign Device to site

you will have to delete and add again manually or through discovery.

This is not correct... you should be able to move the device without having to delete it. I'm having the same issue but only with a few sites/devices.

I have a similar problem of grayed out option but another DNAC let me move any device to anywhere I wants. Same soft ver of 1.3.x. on both. Did anybody have any solution?

Have the same issue, some is gray'd out some is not. Only think I can do is deleting the device, then re-add it back in. 

Can you tell me what is the impact when I delete a device from the Inventory? Device is not added to a fabric, it just got discovered and added to a site. Afterwards some config was pushed to it. I would like to understand what happens when I delete the device from inventory now. Does it just get deleted or does any config also being deleted again. I hope not the switch will be set to factory default or something.
