rmcluster Command

Purpose

Removes an existing cluster or site configuration.

Syntax

rmcluster [-n clustername] [-S sitename][-v]

Description

The rmcluster command removes the cluster configuration or one of the sites in the cluster. The repository disk and the shared disks of the SAN Volume Controller (SVC) that are associated with the entity that must be removed are released.

When a site is removed from the cluster, the repository and the shared disks that are used by the site are released. Releasing the disks does not cause the site to be removed. When a cluster is removed, all the repository and shared disks are released.

Note: A site cannot remove itself. Sites can only be removed from a node in a different site.

Flags

Item Description
-n clustername Specifies the name of the cluster to be removed.
-S sitename Specifies the name of the site to be removed.
-v Specifies the verbose mode.

  2. To remove a site named mysite from the cluster, enter the following command on a node in a different site:
    rmcluster -S mysite
