You can now either use the LUNs previously assigned to the destroyed pool in other pools,
or they can be deleted.
To delete all storage pools:
1. Open a Command View VLS session and log in as the administrator. See Opening a Command

2. In the Storage tab navigation tree, select Storage Pools.
3. If you wish to destroy all storage pools, from the task bar, select Destroy All Storage Pools.
The Confirm Destroy All Storage Pools screen is displayed.

Installing Additional Licenses
Your VLS system may require any of the following licenses:
• Capacity:
A VLS capacity license must be installed on the VLS when you add additional EVA array LUNs
beyond the ten base licenses included with each node.
If you are in a license violation state, all VLS read/write operations are disabled until either
sufficient licenses are installed to support the storage, or the excess storage is removed. When
you have cleared a license violation by installing an upgrade capacity license, the VLS
read/write operations are automatically enabled without requiring a reboot.
Unconfigured VLS12000 Gateway array LUNs are counted by the system; therefore, they can
contribute to license violations.
The base license on the node enables the storage that is part of the base SKU. The capacity
bundle includes the capacity license and the registration materials necessary for installing
capacity licenses.
• Deduplication:
A VLS deduplication license must be installed on the VLS before you can use the deduplication
feature. The number of deduplication licenses must match or exceed the number of capacity
licenses installed. After you install the deduplication licenses, the VLS system automatically
enables the deduplication feature for all supported backup types.
• Replication:
A VLS replication license must be installed on the VLS before you can use deduplication-enabled
replication. Without the license, you may replicate whole backups across the LAN/WAN.
However, you need the replication license to replicate backups that have been deduplicated.
Deduplication-enabled replication requires one license per node on the target site.
