Considerations when modifying a SharePoint service group

Note the following while modifying SharePoint service groups:

  • The wizard has a single workflow that performs service group creation as well as modification tasks. If you wish to add or remove a SharePoint component from the configuration, you must run the wizard again.

    If you run the wizard after configuring the SharePoint service groups, the wizard modifies the existing service group configuration. The wizard rediscovers the SharePoint configuration in the farm and then adds or removes resources depending on the changes made.

    For example, if you add a node to the server farm, the wizard adds the required resources and service groups to the configuration. If an application is removed from the server farm, the wizard removes the corresponding resources from the service group and also updates the VCS configuration.

  • When you run the wizard after configuring the SharePoint service groups, the wizard ignores any custom resources that you may have added to the service groups. If you wish to add, remove, or modify those custom resources, you must do so manually. The wizard does not provide any options to modify custom resources.
