Removing Virtual Disk Members (Deleting Devices)
CAUTION: Use extreme caution when removing a member of a virtual disk. You
may be putting valuable, user data at risk if you delete a member
inappropriately.
To physically remove a device from your subsystem, you must first remove it
from the controller’s list of known devices. Remove a device from the
controller’s list of known devices as follows:
1.
Click the icon of the device you want to delete.
2.
From the Storage menu, select Device, then Remove From Group.
3.
If the client prompts you for your password, enter it.
4.
When client prompts you to confirm the change, click the Yes button to
continue. Client deletes the device from your configuration and
refreshes the Storage window.
Setting Passwords and Security Options
(Network Only)
Password security prevents unauthorized users from changing or removing
storage configurations. In Command Console, any operation that involves
changing controller, virtual disk, or device settings requires a password.
You do not need a password to view Command Console storage
configurations. A password is not required when client is connected locally to
the storage subsystem via a serial port or host SCSI bus connection. The two
security options, selectable from the Storage window’s Options menu are:
View Only and Make changes (Figure 3-35).

View Only Mode
In view only mode, users can view configurations and monitor storage status,
but cannot make changes to controller, virtual disk, or device properties. To
prevent others from making configuration changes, choose View Only from
the Options menu.
