Performing Logical Group Operations 97
CAUTION:
Before deleting a path, make sure that the path is no longer in use.
NOTE:
For LUSE: If all paths of the LUSE volume will be deleted, Device Manager allows you to delete
or keep the LUSE volume if desired. To delete a LUSE volume, in the Delete Logical Group -
Confirmation panel, choose OK without selecting Keep access path. In the Confirmation - LUSE panel,
choose the Delete LUSE button. To retain the LUSE volume, select the Keep LUSE button, except for
the StorageWorks XP512/XP48. For XP512/XP48, LUSE is deleted at the same time that the path is
deleted. Canceling the LUSE deletion for XP512/XP48 cannot be performed.
Restrictions for deleting access paths:
•
For StorageWorks XP12000/XP10000 and XP1024/XP128, you cannot delete the last volume path of
a logical device specified as a copy pair volume.
•
For StorageWorks XP512/XP48, you cannot delete the last volume path of a logical device set to a
command device or a logical device specified as a copy pair volume.
•
For the StorageWorks XP512/XP48, storage (LDEVs) defined for Business Copy XP or Continuous
Access XP may not have a port or LUN assigned. Device Manager cannot be used to remove
storage that is incorrectly configured, such as storage without ports or LUNs. The SVP console must
be used to delete such storage.
6.
If you chose to delete the access paths, read the warning (under Storage List in the Delete Logical Group
- Confirmation panel) about stopping I/O processing from all hosts to the specified LUN(s).
7.
Select YES, I have confirmed it to confirm deletion of the specified path(s).
CAUTION:
The delete LUSE operation is destructive. Read and observe the important warning
carefully, and select OK only if it is acceptable to lose the data on the LUSE.
8.
Select OK to delete the specified group and, if applicable, to remove the specified path(s) from the
LDEVs/LUs. Select Cancel to cancel your request to delete the group.
You are notified when the delete group operation is complete. LDEVs/LUs with no remaining paths are
now listed in the Open-Unallocated group of the storage subsystem.
