removeld
DESCRIPTION
The removeld command removes a specified Logical Disk (LD) from the system service group.
SYNTAX
removeld [options] {<LD_name>|<pattern>}...
AUTHORITY
• Super, Service, Edit
• Any role granted the ld_remove right.
OPTIONS
–pat
Specified patterns are treated as glob-style patterns and all LDs matching the specified pattern are
removed. By default, confirmation is required to proceed with the command unless the –f option
is specified. This option must be used if the pattern specifier is used.
–dr
Specifies that the operation is a dry run and no LDs are removed.
–f
Specifies that the command is forced. If this option is not used, the command requires confirmation
before proceeding with its operation.
–rmsys
Specifies that system resource LDs such as logging LDs and preserved data LDs are removed. See
the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage Concepts Guide for information on logging logical disks and
preserved data logical disks.
CAUTION: System resource logical disks are required for correct operation of the HP 3PAR
storage system. Removal of system resource logical disks should be performed by qualified service
personnel. Incorrect use of the –rmsys option can result in data loss.
-unused
Specifies the command to remove non-system logical disks. This option cannot be used with the
-rmsys option.
SPECIFIERS
<LD_name>
Specifies the LD name, using up to 31 characters. Multiple LDs can be specified.
<pattern>
Specifies a glob-style pattern. Multiple LDs can be specified. If this specifier is not used, the
<LD_name> specifier must be used. See “Glob-Style Pattern” (page 12) for more information.
RESTRICTIONS
• System resource LDs are required for correct operation of the HP 3PAR Storage System.
Removal of system resource LDs should be performed by qualified service personnel. Incorrect
use of the -rmsys option can result in data loss.
• If the LD is mapped to a virtual volume, the LD is not removed and the command stops at that
logical disk.
