AS-i Input Module

I have a process on a multi-process machine that is no longer needed. I want to remove this process however it is using AS-i interface modules. When I break the link I get an error on the controller. From what I've read so far this appears to be due to communicating to those particular addresses. What is the procedure for removing particular AS-i modules and still maintain the rest of AS-i networks integrity?
Thanks
