The status of the new member is displayed by selecting the Group in the tree. Details are available by clicking on the chassis image or

the details button.

NOTE: The credentials entered for a member are passed securely to the member chassis, to establish a trust

relationship between the member and lead chassis. The credentials are not persisted on either chassis, and are never

exchanged again after the initial trust relationship is established.

Removing a Member from the Leader

You can remove a member from the group from the lead chassis. To remove a member:

1. Login with chassis administrator privileges to the leader chassis.

2. Select the Lead chassis in the tree.

3. Click Setup > Group Administration.

4. From the Remove Members list, select the member’s name or names to be deleted, and then click Apply.

The lead chassis then communicates to the member or members, if more than one is selected, that it has been removed from the

group. The member name is removed. The member chassis may not receive the message, if a network issue prevents contact

between the leader and the member. In this case, disable the member from the member chassis to complete the removal.
