Procedure
n
If the pod is available, run the lmvutil comand with the --unjoin option.
You must run this command on a View Connection Server instance in the pod that you want to remove
from the pod federation.
lmvutil --unjoin
For example:
lmvutil --authAs adminEast --authDomain domainEast --authPassword "*" --unjoin
n
If the pod is not available (for example, in the case of a hardware failure), run the lmvutil command
with the --ejectPod option.
You can run this command on any View Connection Server instance in the pod federation.
IMPORTANT In most circumstances, you should use the lmvutil command with the --unjoin option to
remove a pod from a pod federation.
lmvutil --ejectPod --pod podname
The --pod option specifies the name of the pod to remove.
For example:
lmvutil --authAs adminEast --authDomain domainEast --authPassword "*" --ejectPod --pod "East
Pod 1"
Modifying Global Entitlements
You can add and remove desktop pools, users, and groups from global entitlements. You can also delete
global entitlements and modify global entitlement attributes and policies.
Add a Desktop Pool to a Global Entitlement
You can add a desktop pool to an existing global entitlement. You can add a particular desktop pool to only
one global entitlement.
Prerequisites
n
Create the desktop pool to add to the global entitlement. For information about creating desktop pools,
see the Setting Up Desktop and Application Pools in View document.
n
Become familiar with the lmvutil command authentication options and requirements and verify that
you have sufficient privileges to run the lmvutil command. See “lmvutil Command Authentication,”
on page 43.
