How To Remove Old "Cluster Network?"

Proposed How To Remove Old "Cluster Network?"

    I've got an old Cluster Network that was on the two original nodes (now there are 3 nodes) and the network is no longer used (we are using the nics for hyper-v traffic now.)  However, the Cluster Network appears in the cluster manager in a failed state and it spits out errors anytime a node is restarted.

    Is there a simple way to remove the cluster network from the Cluster Manager?

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks, I have already done that.  Even though the boxed is checked for do not allow - the 3rd node is giving an error about the failed state of the network adapters on the original 2 nodes.

    Thanks again for he advice.  Any other thoughts?
