Remove-Cache
This PowerShell cmdlet enables the user to remove an already registered cache from an NCache server or cluster by unregistering it from the NCache service and permanently deleting its associated data. The Remove-Cache cmdlet requires the cache name and optionally supports specifying the target server, port, and credentials for secure clusters. Since the operation results in permanent data removal, backing up data beforehand is recommended if needed.
Remove-Cache -Name [-Port] [-Server] [-Credentials] [-NoLogo]
