+ Step 2: Use TiUP to remove a TiFlash node 
  + Confirm the name of the node to be taken down
  + Remove the TiFlash node (assume that the node name is 10.0.1.4:9000 from previous step)
  
```
/* Confirm the name of the node to be taken down */
tiup cluster display <cluster-name>

-------------------------------------------------------------
You can also manually remove a TiFlash node manually, when a node needs to be forcibly taken down, or if the TiUP scale-in operation fails.
