DELETE ASSOCIATION (Delete the node association to a schedule)

Parameters

domain_name (Required)
Specifies the name of the policy domain to which the schedule belongs.
schedule_name (Required)
Specifies the name of the schedule from which clients are to be disassociated.
node_name (Required)
Specifies the name of the client node that is no longer associated with the client schedule. You can specify a list of clients which are to be no longer associated with the specified schedule. Commas, with no intervening spaces, separate the items in the list. You can also use a wildcard character to specify a name. All matching clients are disassociated from the specified schedule.

Example: Delete a node association to a schedule

To delete the association of the node JEFF, assigned to the DOMAIN1 policy domain, to the WEEKLY_BACKUP schedule issue the following command:
delete association domain1 weekly_backup jeff

Example: Delete a node association to a schedule using a wildcard for node selection

Delete the association of selected clients, assigned to the DOMAIN1 policy domain, to the WEEKLY_BACKUP schedule so that this schedule is no longer run by these clients. The nodes that are disassociated from the schedule contain ABC or XYZ in the node name. Issue the command:
delete association domain1 weekly_backup *abc*,*xyz*
