Description

The Remove-DAEntryPoint cmdlet removes all the servers contained in an entry point from a multi-site deployment, therefore also removing the entry point.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

PS C:\>Remove-DAEntryPoint -Name "Entry Point 2" -PassThru -Force
EntryPointName                 GslbIp                         Servers 
--------------                 ------                         ------- 
Entry Point 2                  0.0.0.0                        {da2.domain1.corp.contoso.com}

This example removes an entry point named Entry Point 2 from an existing multi-site deployment. Specifying the PassThru parameter presents the DAEntryPoint object that was removed.
