Logical chassis cluster mode discovery

4

Administratively removing a node from a logical chassis cluster

You can remove a node from a logical chassis cluster by using the Network OS command line
interface. For instructions, refer to the Network OS Administrator’s Guide and the Network OS
Command Reference
, versions 4.0 or later.

Once the node is removed, all configurations corresponding to that node are removed from the
cluster configuration database.

The deleted node gets rebooted automatically and boots in VCS-disabled mode.

The deleted node also gets marked as missing in the cluster.

The Management application initiates auto-discovery immediately, and the deleted node gets
rediscovered in its current state.

As an example,

Figure 13

shows the Discover Setup - IP dialog box before the administrator

removes a node from the cluster.
