The clnode remove -f Option Fails to Remove the Node with the Solaris Volume Manager Device Group (6471834)

Problem Summary: The -clnode remove --force command should remove nodes from the metasets. The Sun Cluster System Administration Guide for Solaris OS provides procedures for removing a node from the cluster. These procedures instruct the user to run the metaset command for the Solaris Volume Manager disk set removal prior to running clnode remove.

Workaround: If the procedures were not followed, it might be necessary to clear the stale node data from the CCR in the usual way: From an active cluster node, use the metaset command to clear the node from the Solaris Volume Manager disk sets. Then run clnode clear --force obsolete_nodename.
