MOL has a doc on how to remove a system from a cluster. Not a simple process.
Did you happen to see that doc?

No, dang it, this is two times in a week there is a "special procedure" that has bit me in the but afterwards...
It seemed pretty straight forward to me, just reverse the add process
Remove ARS Route
Remove XNET Trunk Group
Remove XNET/ICP Assignment
Remove ICP Assignment
Remove Cluster Element
Remove Network Element
Hope that is correct, because I did it in 10 controllers and all are happy except for one of them... I did notice that I forgot the XNET stuff on this controller, so I removed it and now it looks better, but it's still in minor alarm now, saying ICP Comms alarm with 9 nodes and 11% unavailable, but here is the state:
Signalling | Link | Dest | XNET | State | Owner | ID |Status

Could this be one of those alarms that just goes away after a period of time? I know some like T-1 errors do... kind of crossing my fingers that it will or a reboot will clear it up.
EDIT: @ralph, do you have this document or know the article number? I can't seem to find it in the knowledge base...
