# vxtask abort recovall
This command causes VxVM to try to reverse the progress of the operation so far.
For example, aborting an Online Relayout results in VxVM returning the volume
to its original layout.
See “Controlling the progress of a relayout” on page 380.
About SF Thin Reclamation feature
You can use the Thin Reclamation feature in the following ways:
■ Space is reclaimed automatically when a volume is deleted. Because it is
asynchronous, you may not see the reclaimed space immediately.
■ You can trigger reclamation for a disk, disk group, or enclosure.
■ You can trigger reclamation for a VxFS file system.
Reclamation of storage on thin reclamation arrays
Storage Foundation enables reclamation of storage on thin reclamation arrays.
See “How reclamation on a deleted volume works” on page 344.
The thin reclamation feature is supported only for LUNs that have the thinrclm
attribute. VxVM automatically discovers LUNs that support Thin Reclamation
from thin capable storage arrays. You can list devices that are known to have the
thinonly or thinrclm attributes on the host.
See “Identifying thin and thin reclamation LUNs ” on page 343.
In this release, Storage Foundation does not support thin reclamation for disks
with the hpdisk format.
Identifying thin and thin reclamation LUNs
You can only perform Thin Reclamation on LUNS which have the thinrclm
attribute. VxVM automatically discovers LUNs that support Thin Reclamation
from capable storage arrays. To identify devices that are known to have the
thinonly or thinrclm attributes on a host, use the vxdisk -o thin list
command.
