Maintaining Your Cluster
53
To remove the last node from a cluster:
1 Right-click the node you want to remove and click Evict Node, as shown
in Figure 10-1. This returns the cluster to its original state. You can add it
again later to the same cluster or to a different cluster.
Figure 10-1. Cluster Administrator- Evict Node
If you cannot start the cluster service or if you have trouble removing the
node, you can manually un-configure the cluster service on a node as follows:
1 On the node you want to remove, open a command prompt. Click Start→
Run and enter cmd .
2 At the command prompt, enter cluster node
<nodename>
/forcecleanup .
NOTE:
If the cluster service does not exist in the registry, the command does not
respond. To create a place holder, enter sc create clussvc at the
command line.
