How to Leave a Partnership

Before You Begin

Before you leave a partnership, ensure that the following conditions are met:

• The local cluster is a member of the partnership you want to leave.

• This partnership does not contain any protection groups.

Steps

1. Log in to a cluster node.

   You must be assigned the Geo Management RBAC rights profile to complete this procedure. For more information about RBAC, see Sun Cluster Geographic Edition Software and RBAC.

2. Verify that the partnership does not have any protection groups.

   # geopg list

   If you find that the partnership contains protection groups, you can delete them with the geopg delete command. For information about deleting Sun StorEdge Availability Suite 3.2.1 protection groups, see How to Delete a Sun StorEdge Availability Suite 3.2.1 Protection Group. For information about deleting a Hitachi TrueCopy protection group, see How to Delete a Hitachi TrueCopy Protection Group.

3. Remove the partnership on one node of the cluster that is a member of the partnership.

   # geops leave-partnership partnership-name

   partnership-name

Example 5–4 Leaving a Partnership

The following example illustrates how cluster-paris leaves the paris-newyork-ps partnership.

phys-paris-1# geops leave-partnership paris-newyork-ps

Example 5–5 Deleting a Partnership

After cluster-paris leaves the paris-newyork-ps partnership, as described in the previous example, the only remaining member of the partnership is cluster-newyork. The paris-newyork-ps partnership can now be deleted by making its last remaining member, cluster-newyork, leave the partnership as follows:

phys-newyork-1# geops leave-partnership paris-newyork-ps

Next Steps

Repeat this procedure on the other cluster in the partnership.
