Uninstalling the AWS Replication Agent from a source server stops the replication of that server. Uninstalling the AWS Replication Agent removes the source server from the AWS Application Migration Service console.
Note
-
The source server must be able to communicate with the Application Migration Service service in order for the Agent to be uninstalled successfully.
-
If the Agent is uninstalled directly from a source server without disconnecting the server from Application Migration Service or finalizing the cutover within the Application Migration Service console, the replication metering period continues and once 2160 hours have elapsed, billing for replication begins.

console
