Dear all, Before I only one sample in my analysis, but when I merge the bam file from different lane, I used the different RG. Just like the following:

@RG ID:Ptrem PL:ILLUMINA LB:Ptrem SM:Ptrem

@RG ID:PtPE14c PL:ILLUMINA LB:PtPE14c SM:PtPE14c

@RG ID:PtPE14d PL:ILLUMINA LB:PtPE14d SM:PtPE14d

@RG ID:PtPE15 PL:ILLUMINA LB:PtPE15 SM:PtPE15

@RG ID:PtPE16 PL:ILLUMINA LB:PtPE16 SM:PtPE16

@RG ID:PtPE1a PL:ILLUMINA LB:PtPE1a SM:PtPE1a

@RG ID:PtPE1a1 PL:ILLUMINA LB:PtPE1a1 SM:PtPE1a1

@RG ID:PtPE1a2 PL:ILLUMINA LB:PtPE1a2 SM:PtPE1a2

Now, I want to delete some RG from the BAM file. How could I do that? I just want to have onely one RG in the right BAM file.

From the documentation:

Replaces all read groups in the INPUT file with a new read group and assigns all reads to this read group in the OUTPUT BAMVersion: 1.0

Hi Irsan, I used the command: java -Xmx10g -jar /usr/local/bin/picard-tools-1.66/AddOrReplaceReadGroups.jar \ INPUT=new.sort.reheadered3.bam \ OUTPUT=new.sort.RG.bam \ SORT_ORDER=coordinate \ RGID=Ptrem \ RGLB=Ptrem \ RGPL=illumina \ RGPU=C063JACXX.6 RGSM=Ptrem

What is the problem!

Thanks!

Hmm well just as the error message says, it seems there is a read with a read group ID that is not in your header. Maybe you can add VALIDATION_STRINGENCY=LENIENT (or even VALIDATION_STRINGENCY=SILENT) to your command to ignore the error and continue to replace the read group info
