After you add a service to a node, how do you go about removing that service from say one node or all nodes?

For example, I have added pig and now I have decided that I no longer want pig installed on any of my nodes. Do I have to go into each node and manually do a yum remove pig to remove pig from my nodes?

Ambari makes things really easy to add but not so easy to figure out how to remove

You can try to delete a host component by using the Ambari REST API as described on this website:
