To Manually Clear the SAN Database

It is occasionally necessary to manually clear the SAN database on the virtualization
engine routers.

Caution –

This procedure will wipe out the SAN database and will remove the

configuration of disk pools, Multipath drives, Zoning, and VLUNs. After performing
this procedure, the virtualization map must be restored to the virtualization engine
pair using

/opt/SUNWsecfg/bin/restorevemap

. This requires a valid copy of

the

/opt/SUNWsecfg/etc/v1.san or v2.san

file.
