Removing an appliance from a Network Security HA pair using the CLI

Use the commands in this section to delete a member of a Network Security HA pair.

To remove an appliance from an HA pair:

Enable the CLI configuration mode:

hostname > enable
hostname # configure terminal
hostname (config) #

Delete the appliance:
```
hostname (config) # no cmc ha nx <pair> appliance <member>
```
where <pair> is the name of the pair and <member> is the name of the appliance you want to remove. (The appliance name is displayed in the show cmc appliances command output).
Verify your change:
```
hostname (config) # show cmc ha nx
```
Save your change:
```
hostname (config) # write memory
```

Example

The following example removes nx-2 from the Acme_NXHA pair.

hostname (config) # no cmc ha nx Acme_NXHA appliance nx-2
hostname (config) # show cmc ha nx
NX-HA Acme_NXHA: nx-1      Status: Degraded
    Comment:
    NX-HA pair is degraded because not all members
    are configured.
