10 Removing a Storage System from EMC SMI-S Provider
Follow this procedure to remove a system from the list after the migration has completed or if you
have added the wrong system for migration.
CAUTION: You cannot remove a system or abort the migration during the migration process.
You can remove the system only before migration begins or after it has completed.
1. In the SMI-S CLI, execute the ein command.
When prompted for a Class value, enter:
Clar_StorageSystem
Example 57 Removing the Storage System
++++ Testing EnumerationInstanceNames: Clar_StorageSystem ++++
Instance 0:
Clar_StorageSystem.CreationClassName="Clar_StorageSystem",Name=" CLARiiON+APM00000000000”
Instance 1:
Clar_StorageSystem.CreationClassName="Clar_StorageSystem",Name="CLARiiON+APM00000000001"
2. Execute the SMI-S CLI remsys command. Copy the entire path of the array Instance that you
wish to remove. See Example 58 “Verifying that the Storage System Has Been Removed”.
NOTE: The APM value in the object path should match the serial number of the storage
system that you wish to remove.
3. At the SMI-S CLI ObjectPatch[null]: prompt, paste the path of the array Instance.
4. Follow the rest of the prompts and look for a message indicating success.
When you run an SMI-S CLI dv or ein command, you should no longer see the storage system
that you just removed.
