The Remove-SRGroup cmdlet removes a replication group.
A replication group contains one or more data volumes and an associated log volume.
A replication group is the container of replication.
Examples
Example 1: Remove a replication group
PS C:\>Remove-SRGroup -ComputerName "SR-SRV06" -Name "ReplicationGroup02"
Confirm
Are you sure you want to perform this action?
This action will remove group ReplicationGroup02. Are you sure you want to continue?
[Y] Yes [A] Yes to All [N] No [L] No to All [S] Suspend [?] Help (default is "Y"):
This command removes the ReplicationGroup02 replication group from computer SR-SRV06.
Example 2: Remove all replication groups
PS C:\>Get-SRGroup | Remove-SRGroup
Confirm
Are you sure you want to perform this action?
This action will remove group ReplicationGroup01. Are you sure you want to continue?
[Y] Yes [A] Yes to All [N] No [L] No to All [S] Suspend [?] Help (default is "Y"):
This command gets all replication groups on this computer by using the Get-SRGroup cmdlet.
The command passes them to the current cmdlet by using the pipeline operator.
The current cmdlet removes each replication group.
