following:

the Group Name text box.

11. If you have backup SR2500 Media Indexers in the HAG, open the Media Indexer
process for each of those Media Indexers and deselect the Join High Availability Group
button to remove the MI from the HAG. Do not remove the HAG leader at this time.
12. (Option) Open the Health Monitor and select the Interplay Media Indexer process for
the AS3000 MI. Then open the Redundancy Information window. This will allow you to
view the election as the AS3000 MI becomes the leader of the HAG.
The following illustration shows the Health Monitor window before the election. There
are two members in the HAG and the AS3000 MI is the backup.
13. When you have only the AS3000 MI and the SR2500 leader left in the HAG, remove the
SR2500 leader from the HAG.
