The lead chassis then communicates to the member or members, if more than one is selected, that it has been removed from
the group. The member name is removed. The member chassis may not receive the message, if a network issue prevents
contact between the leader and the member. In this case, disable the member from the member chassis to complete the
removal.

to access the member device.

b. In the chassis image that is displayed in the
Health
section, select the server.

Quick Links
, select the destination device. A new window is displayed with the destination page or login
screen.
