Deleting a Path (of a Volume Group Other than rootvg)

The following shows an example of deleting a path of a volume group other

than rootvg.

1

.

Execute the following HDLM command to check the OS management path

ID of the path that is to be deleted and to determine the devices (hdisk

name) connected to the path.

# /usr/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr view -drv

PathID HDevName OSPathID LDEV

000000 hdisk5 00000 USP.0014050.0065

000001 hdisk5 00001 USP.0014050.0065

000002 hdisk5 00002 USP.0014050.0065

000003 hdisk10 00000 9500V.5457.0102

000004 hdisk10 00001 9500V.5457.0102

000005 hdisk10 00002 9500V.5457.0102

For each path ID (PathID column), check the entries in the HDevName and
OSPathID columns. In the following steps, device-name and OS-

management- path-ID refer to the HDevName and OSPathID items,

respectively, that you checked in this step.

.

Execute the following command to check the parent device and

connection of the path to be deleted:
Specify the device-name checked in step 1 in executing the following

command:

# lspath -Hl device-name -F "name path_id parent connection"

When hdisk10 is specified, the command and the execution results would

be as follows:

# lspath -Hl hdisk10 -F "name path_id parent connection"

name path_id parent connection

hdisk10 0 fscsi4 50060e800436e240,6a000000000000

hdisk10 1 fscsi4 50060e800436e250,6a000000000000

hdisk10 2 fscsi5 50060e800436e240,6a000000000000

Search for lines in which the path_id item matches OS-management-

path-ID. If matching lines are found, check the parent and connection

entries. In the following steps, the checked parent and connection items

correspond to fscsi-number and connection-position, respectively.

.

Delete the path.

# rmpath -d -l device-name -p fscsi-number -w connection-position

The following example deletes the path whose OS-management-path-ID

is 2:
