Removing Members from Machine Groups

Members can be removed from machine groups. When the last member is removed, the group definition is also removed.

In the Web-based System Manager NIM application, formal machine groups are not explicitly created and managed.

From SMIT

  1. To remove members from a machine group, enter the smit nim_chgrp fast path.
  2. Select the machine group to modify.
  3. Specify members to remove from the group. Use the LIST option to select members to remove.

From the Command Line

To remove a member from a machine group, enter the following command:

nim -o change -a rm_member=MachineName GroupName

For example, to remove machine, Standalone2 , and add machine, Standalone4 , to the group, MacGrp1 , enter:

nim -o change -a rm_member=Standalone2 \ 
-a add_member=Standalone4 MacGrp1
