group remove

Removes a member from a group. The syntax is:

group remove group_name_list -member member_name_list

Options

-member member_name_list
A list of one or more names of principals to be added to each group in the argument.

Description
The group remove operation removes members from the groups identified by group_name_list. The required -member_name_list is a list of principals to remove from the groups named in group_name_list. The member_name_list can contain both local and fully qualified names. Use fully qualified names to remove principals in foreign cells from the group.

When a member is removed from a group, any accounts associated with that principal and group are deleted. Remember that accounts are associated with a principal, a group, and an organization; therefore, any accounts whose principal name and group name match those given to this command are removed, but accounts for which only one name matches are untouched. This operation returns an empty string on success.

Privileges Required
You must have r (read) and M (Member_list) permissions on the target groups and r (read) permission on the member to be removed.
