metrocluster configuration-settings interface delete

Delete a MetroCluster interface

Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description​

The metrocluster configuration-settings interface delete command deletes the network logical interface that was configured on a network port provisioned for MetroCluster.

This command cannot be run if the metrocluster configuration-settings connection connect command has set up the connections between the nodes in a DR group. The metrocluster configuration-settings connection disconnect command must then be run to remove the connections.

The metrocluster configuration-settings commands commands are run in the following order to remove the MetroCluster over IP configuration:

Parameters​

-cluster-name <Cluster name> - Cluster Name
Use this parameter to specify the name of the local or partner cluster.
-home-node <text> - Home Node
Use this parameter to specify the home node in the cluster which hosts the interface.
-home-port {<netport>|<ifgrp>} - Home Port
Use this parameter to specify the home port provisioned for MetroCluster.

Examples​

The following example shows the deletion of interface in a MetroCluster setup:

clusA::> metrocluster configuration-settings interface delete -cluster-name clusA -home-node A1 -home-port e0f
[Job 271] Job succeeded: Interface Delete is successful.
