Deleting altern
ate paths by selecting multiple external LUs
(Delete Paths)
You can delete p
aths for multiple volumes that belong to the same external LU group at one time. To
delete altern
ate paths for multiple external LUs at one time, select the alternate path in the Delete Paths
window, check the setting in the Path Setting window, and apply the setting to the array.
CAUTION:
At least one normal path must be set on each mapped external LU.
NOTE:
Use the Delete Paths window to delete paths to multiple external LUs at one time. However, the deleted
path settings might not be applied because of the current path setting of each volume. After you set the
deletionintheDeletePathswindow,checkwhetherornotthenewpathsettingscanbeappliedinthe
Path Setting window for each external LU. If the setting cannot be applied, the setting from the Delete
Paths window does not appear on the Path Setting window. The setting from the Delete Paths window
also does not appear in the Preset list or in the LU Operation pane.
