The Remove-CMDistributionPointGroup cmdlet removes one or more distribution point groups.
When you remove a distribution point group, you cannot use the distribution point group to distribute content to the site collections that are associated with the distribution point group and to the distribution points that are members of the distribution point group.
Note
Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
Examples
Example 1: Remove a distribution point group by using an ID
This command removes the distribution point group named DpgDept01.
