HP Instant Capacity User's Guide for Version 9.x

7.9 Removing a Global Instant Capacity Group Member
Before removing a member from a GiCAP group, all the borrowed usage rights must be returned
and all outstanding loans reclaimed. Do this by deactivating resources on the member about to
be removed. Loaned usage rights are reclaimed by deactivating enough resources elsewhere in
the group to cover the loan. The reclamation of loaned usage rights on the member about to be
removed does not require the activation of resources on that member. As long as the usage rights
are not in use elsewhere in the group, removing the member results in the member reclaiming
its loans.
There is no constraint on temporary capacity because a removed member will take with it
whatever temporary capacity is assigned to it.
When a member is removed from a group, some number of sharing rights are released and made
available for future use. The number freed is equal to the number of cores without usage rights
on the removed member.
The following commands remove member IT from its group, and then remove group one:
> icapmanage -r -m IT
Member IT removed.
> icapmanage -r -g one
Group one removed.
A group cannot be removed until all members in that group have been removed.
