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.
