Removing a Pod from a Pod Federation with the lmvutil Command

Use the lmvutil command with the --unjoin or --ejectPod option to remove a pod from a pod federation.

Syntax

lmvutil --unjoin

lmvutil --ejectPod --pod pod

Usage Notes

To remove a pod from a pod federation, use the --unjoin option. You can run the command on any Connection Server instance in the pod.

To remove a pod that is not available from a pod federation, use the --ejectPod option. For example, a pod might become unavailable if a hardware failure occurs. You can perform this operation on any pod in the pod federation.

Important: In most circumstances, you should use the --unjoin option to remove a pod from a pod federation.

These commands return an error message if the Cloud Pod Architecture feature is not initialized, the pod is not joined to a pod federation, or if the commands cannot perform specified operations.

Options

When you use the --ejectPod option, you use the --pod option to identify the pod to remove from the pod federation.

Example

lmvutil --authAs adminEast --authDomain domainEast --authPassword "*" --unjoin

lmvutil --authAs adminEast --authDomain domainEast --authPassword "*" --ejectPod 
--pod "East Pod 1"
