7.3.8 Deleting a Drive Group or Logical RAID Drive
You use the same procedure to delete a drive group or a logical RAID drive.
If you delete a drive group, you will be deleting any logical RAID drives
associated with it.
If you delete a logical RAID drive, you will be deleting the drive group on which
it was configured and any other logical RAID drives configured on that drive
group.
If you want to delete all logical RAID drives on your subsystem, see Section
7.3.9, Clearing the Subsystem Configuration.
Delete a drive group if you want to:
• Add another drive to the group
• Remove a drive from the group
• Create a new group using some of the drives in an existing group
Delete a logical RAID drive if you want to change its RAID level.
To determine which logical RAID drives use the disk space of a drive group,
follow these steps:
1. Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the View Logical Drive Matrix
on the View/Update Configuration menu and press the Enter key. The
logical RAID drive list screen appears.
2. Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight a logical RAID drive in the
logical RAID drive list and press the Enter key. The cursor moves to the
drive matrix. The drive group associated with the selected logical RAID
drive appears highlighted.
3. Press the Enter key again to return to the logical RAID drive list to select
another logical RAID drive.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you determine all of the logical RAID drives
associated with a drive group.
5. Use your normal procedure to backup the data on all the logical RAID drives
configured on the drive group that you want to delete.
