Command
Step 1
switch# config t
Step 2
switch(config)# sme cluster ABC
switch(config-sme-cl)# shutdown
Repeat the procedure for every offline switch.
Note
On the cluster master switch, delete the offline switch (for example, switch2) by performing this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
Step 2
switch(config)# sme cluster ABC
switch(config-sme-cl)# no node
switch2
