Removing a Cache Device from a Fluid Cache Cluster
If you are removing the cache device from the server, perform a graceful removal by first ensuring that
the cache device is not in active use. See Removing a Server from a Fluid Cache Cluster for the steps on
gracefully removing a server from a cluster.
1. In Enterprise Manager’s Storage view, expand Fluid Cache Clusters if necessary, and then select the
Fluid Cache cluster. (Do not select
Storage Centers or its contents.)
2. In the Summary tab, locate the cache device in the Devices section.
3. Right-click the device and select Remove Device from Cluster.
4. When asked to confirm the action, click OK.
As part of the deletion process, dirty data in the cache is flushed to main storage. This could take a
considerable duration of time for a large quantity of data.
When processing is complete, the cache device no longer appears in the list of devices. You may
need to manually refresh the data on the page.
Reactivate a Cache Device Attached to a Fluid Cache Cluster
Use Enterprise Manager to reactivate a Fluid Cache cluster cache device.
1. Click the Storage view.
2. In the Storage pane, expand Fluid Cache Clusters if necessary and select the Fluid Cache cluster.
3. In the Cache or Summary tab, expand Servers if necessary, and expand the server housing the device
if necessary. Select the device to be reactivated and click Reactivate Device. The Reactivate Device
dialog box appears.
4. Click OK.
Reactivate a Volume on a Fluid Cache Cluster
Use Enterprise Manager to reconnect to a volume in a failed state from a Fluid Cache cluster while
maintaining the cluster and the volume.
1. Click the Storage view.
2. In the Storage pane, expand Fluid Cache Clusters if necessary and select the cluster with the
questionable volume.
3. In the Volumes pane of the Summary tab, double-click the volume to be reactivated and click
Reactivate Volume. The Reactivate Volume dialog box appears.
4. Click OK.
