Notes

  • The built-in ConfirmImpact setting for this cmdlet is Medium. If this ConfirmImpact setting is equal to or higher than the value of the $ConfirmPreference variable for your environment, the cmdlet prompts for confirmation unless you specify –Confirm:$false. If this ConfirmImpact setting is lower than the value of the $ConfirmPreference variable for your environment, the cmdlet does not prompt for confirmation unless you specify –Confirm or –Confirm:$true.

  • You must be a cluster administrator to run this cmdlet successfully.

  • For information about user roles on the HPC cluster, see Understanding User Roles.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

Removes the member with a user name of someone in the CONTOSO domain from the HPC cluster. If CONTOSO\someone belonged to more than one role, the Remove-HpcMember cmdlet removes CONTOSO\someone from all roles.

PS C:\>Remove-HpcMember -Name CONTOSO\someone

EXAMPLE 2

Removes the account with a user name of someone in the CONTOSO domain from the administrator role for the HPC cluster. If CONTOSO\someone also belonged to another role, then CONTOSO\someone remains a member of the HPC cluster in that role.

PS C:\>Remove-HpcMember -Name CONTOSO\someone -Role Administrator

EXAMPLE 3

Removes the members with user names of user1 and user2 in the CONTOSO domain from the HPC cluster. If CONTOSO\user1 or CONTOSO\user2 belonged to more than one role, the Remove-HpcMember cmdlet removes that account from all roles.

PS C:\>Remove-HpcMember -Name CONTOSO\user1,CONTOSO\user2

EXAMPLE 4

Gets the HpcMember object or objects for the member with a user name of someone in the CONTOSO domain, then removes that member from all roles to which the member belongs and from the HPC cluster by redirecting the Name property of the HpcMember object or objects to the Remove-HpcMember cmdlet.

PS C:\>Get-HpcMember -Name CONTOSO\someone | Remove-HpcMember

EXAMPLE 5

Gets the HpcMember objects for all the members of the user role for the HPC cluster, then removes those members from the user role by redirecting the Name and Roles properties of the HpcMember objects to the Remove-HpcMember cmdlet.

PS C:\>Get-HpcMember -Role user | Remove-HpcMember
