vtl haAdmin removeMember

Name

 vtl haAdmin removeMember  - remove a member from an HA group.

Syntax

vtl haAdmin removeMember -group <groupNum> -serialNum <serialnumber> -password <password>

Description

Removes the specified member from the HA group. If the member is still accessible via the NTLA, the HA key will also be removed from the member, otherwise a warning will be printed that the key was not removed.

Currently the partition must be assigned to the user for the removeMember command to work. If it is not possible to assign the partition to the user, contact Technical Support to ask them how to manually remove the member from the HA group.

CAUTION:  You should never manually remove members unless you absolutely must, because the application has many steps that cannot be replicated manually. 

Options

-group <groupNumber>  [mandatory] The HA group's designating number. Group numbers can be found using the vtl haAdmin -listGroups command.

-serialNum <serialNumber>  [mandatory] The serial number of the partition to remove from the group. Use the vtl haAdmin -listGroups command to see a list of partition serial numbers that belong to the each HA group.

-password <password>  [mandatory] The text password for the partitions.
