134Adding and removing cluster nodes Removing a node from a cluster

To remove or switch service groups from the departing node

1Switch failover service groups from the departing node. You can switch grp3 from node saturn to node nebula.

# hagrp -switch grp3 -to nebula

2Check for any dependencies involving any service groups that run on the departing node; for example, grp4 runs only on the departing node.

# hagrp -dep

3If the service group on the departing node requires other service groups—if it is a parent to service groups on other nodes—unlink the service groups.

#haconf -makerw

#hagrp -unlink grp4 grp1

These commands enable you to edit the configuration and to remove the requirement grp4 has for grp1.

4Stop VCS on the departing node:

# hastop -sys saturn

5Check the status again. The state of the departing node should be EXITED. Make sure that any service group that you want to fail over is online on other nodes.

# hastatus -summary
