The DELETE DISK command removes a magnetic or virtual disk from the system 
configuration database.  The syntax is: 
Wild-card characters are not supported. 
OUT file-spec 
directs all SCF output to the specified file. 
DISK $disk[-B |-M |-MB ] 
is the disk name and, optionally, the path (backup, mirror, or mirror backup).
IGNOREINCONSISTENCY 
specifies that a command can create an inconsistency between the system 
configuration database and the SMF catalogs maintained by the SMF manager 
process, storage pools, and virtual disks.
Use this attribute only if you understand SMF architecture and know how to restore 
consistency between the system configuration database and the SMF catalogs. 
The Softdoc for the T1083 product describes several inconsistencies and the 
procedures for reconciling them.
POOL $pool 
specifies that the command is performed only on disks associated with the 
specified storage pool. 
SEL state 
specifies that the command affects only devices in the specified state.  
SENDTO STORAGE 
specifies that the command affects only disks of the specified type. The default is 
ALL.
SUB { ALL | MAGNETIC | VIRTUAL } 
specifies that the command affects only disks of the specified type. If not specified, 
SUB ALL is assumed.
