Remove Ports from an iSCSI Fault Domain
To repurpose front-end iSCSI ports, remove the ports from the fault domain.
About this task
● If the front-end ports are configured for virtual port mode, the storage system must be running Storage Center 7.5.1 or later
to remove all ports from a fault domain.
● If the front-end ports are configured for virtual port mode, but the storage system is running a version of Storage Center
earlier than Storage Center 7.5.1, an error occurs if the port being removed is the last port in the fault domain.
● If front-end ports are configured for legacy mode, all the ports in a fault domain can be removed from a storage system
running any supported version Storage Center.
NOTE: You cannot remove the last port in the fault domain for an SCv2000 Series or SCv3000 Series system.
