Deleting VIOS nodes from a cluster

You can delete Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) nodes from a cluster by using the Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) configuration menu.

1. From the Shared Storage Pools menu, move the cursor to the Manage Cluster and VIOS Nodes submenu and press Enter.
2. From the Manage Cluster and VIOS Nodes submenu, move the cursor to the Delete Nodes from Cluster option and press Enter. The Cluster and Storage Pool Selection wizard starts.
3. Select the cluster name. The nodes of the cluster are displayed.
4. Select one or more nodes and press Enter. The Delete VIOS Nodes From Cluster window opens.
5. Press F4 or Esc + 4 in the Network names of Nodes to delete field to change the node selection.
6. Press Enter to delete the VIOS nodes.
7. In the confirmation window that opens, select Yes to proceed with deleting the VIOS nodes.
   Note: If the VIOS logical partition is mapped to a logical unit in the storage pool of the cluster, deleting VIOS nodes from a cluster fails. To remove the logical partition, unmap the logical unit.
