Description
Dismantles virtual-volumes, devices (local or distributed) and extents down to the storage-volumes, including unclaiming the
storage-volumes.
Run storage-tool dismantle against top-level storage elements only. If you run storage-tool dismantle against
virtual-volumes, they must not belong to either a consistency-group or storage-view.
NOTE:
This command does NOT allow dismantling of consistency groups or storage views, or of storage extents that are
not root nodes in a storage hierarchy (i.e. targets must not be supporting other storage).
The command fails with an exception before dismantling anything if:
●
A volume to be dismantled is exported in a view and that view is not a dismantle target.
● A volume to be dismantled is in a consistency group and that consistency group is not a dismantle target.
● The dismantle target is supporting other storage (i.e. has anything above it).
storage-tool compose
Creates a virtual-volume on top of the specified storage-volumes, building all intermediate extents, local, and distributed devices
as necessary.
