Create a CR to remove the invalid runner managers in the staging database
This is a follow-up to the incident production#20245 (closed).
From the incident Slack channel (internal):
How do we go about removing these 61 invalid runner managers in the staging database?
> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ci_runners WHERE runner_type != 1 AND sharding_key_id IS NULL +-------+ | count | |-------| | 61 | +-------+ SELECT 1It is fine to just delete them, as they will get recreated the next time the runner contacts GitLab. We just need someone with permissions to go into the staging DB and drop the records.
As stated in the handbook:
Changes are defined as modifications to the operational environment, including configuration changes, adding or removing components or services to the environment and cloud infrastructure changes. Our Staging environment is crucial to our GitLab.com release process. Therefore, Staging should be considered within scope for Change Management, as part of GitLab’s operational environment.

This needs to be done via a Change request and with the EOC's confirmation, we will need a DBO to make the change.
