Explanation

In a Cisco ISE distributed deployment, when the secondary node is deregistered, the secondary node restarts and transitions to a standalone state - it is no longer part of the distributed deployment. The primary node is unaffected and continues running normally as-is (it does not restart or change to standalone, because it was already operating as the primary). This behavior is important to understand for ISE administration: deregistering removes the node from the deployment cleanly, causing only the removed node to restart and come up as an independent standalone ISE instance. The primary remains operational throughout this process, which is critical for minimizing disruption.
