Removing an Adapter from a Team

Note: Do not remove an adapter while it is carrying traffic. If you do, unpredictable

results will occur.

Manager cannot be managed by the OneCommand NIC Teaming and VLAN

Manager and may not be visible to the OneCommand NIC Teaming and VLAN

Manager. Make sure that any affected adapters are enabled before making any

NIC Teaming configuration changes.

Syntax

delete adapter <team-id> <Adapter-id>
