+ <para>
+ When deleting a range from a nodemap it must be the same range that was
+ declared when using nodemap_add_range. This means that it is not possible
+ to remove a range inside of the initial values or a (partially) overlapping
+ range. Also worth noting, if two different ranges are added that are adjacent,
+ they are still treated as two independent ranges and must be each individually
+ deleted.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ When deleting a whole policy group all of the associated ID mappings,
+ NID ranges, and other parameters will be removed, and existing clients
+ will be moved to the default nodemap. The default nodemap cannot be deleted.
+ The syntax is:</para>
