Deleting Virtual Disks

CAUTION: Verify that you are not deleting the communications LUN. If you
delete the communications LUN, you will not be able to communicate with your
subsystems.

Although virtual disks do not exist in a physical sense, it is their logical

structure that ties together the physical pieces of your data spread across
their members. Use extreme caution when deleting a virtual disk. You may
be deleting valuable user data.

1.

In Windows NT, use the Disk Administrator to first delete the partition.

2.

Click on the icon of the virtual disk you want to delete.

3.

From the Storage menu, select Virtual Disk, then Delete.

4.

If Client prompts you for your password, enter it.

5.

When client prompts to confirm the change, click the Yes button to
continue. Client deletes your virtual disk from your configuration and
refreshes the Storage window.
