Hello,

When you remove the member, the group lead will move to the remaining member automatically. It's a well handled condition. Same thing happens when you restart the group lead. It will move to another member w/o intervention.

Moves like this are a great time to upgrade firmware. You can move the 3700 into a new pool, upgrade it then move it in with the 6500. Move the 6500 to that temp pool and upgrade it. It's known as a rolling upgrade. It takes time but you're never down. Just something to consider.

Regards,

Don

I have joined the PS3700 to the group where the PS6500 is the group lead. All the volumes are now off the PS6500 and on the 3700. When I select 'Delete Member', it errors at "Not enough free space exists among the remaining pool members to allow the member removal"

Is there anyway to force delete a member and seize group lead roles to the PS3700??

Thanks for your reply Don.

Nevermind! I got it. I didnt' realize I still had a replication reserve on the PS6500. Once I deleted the replication partner, I was able to remove the member. Now the PS3700 is the only member in this group. On to replication.....
