Parameter Description
logicalDrive
or
logicalDrives
The name of the logical drive that you want to delete.
You can enter more than one logical drive name
separated by spaces. Enclose the logical drive name in
square brackets ([ ]). If the logical drive name has
special characters, you also must enclose the logical
drive name in double quotation marks (“ ”).
removesubsystem
Deleting the last logical drive in an subsystem does not
delete the subsystem. You can have a stand-alone
subsystem (minus any logical drives). To remove the
stand-alone subsystem, set this parameter to
TRUE . To
keep stand-alone subsystems intact, set this parameter
to
FALSE .
Notes
When you use the
allLogicalDrives
parameter, this command deletes logical drives until all of the
logical drives are removed or until an error is encountered. If an error is encountered, this command does
not try to delete the remaining logical drives. Deleting logical drives from different subsystems is
possible. All of the subsystems that become empty are deleted if you set the
removesubsystem
parameter
to
TRUE
.
If you want to delete an entire subsystem, you can also use the
delete subsystem
command.
Delete VolumeGroup
This command deletes one or more standard logical drives, Enhanced FlashCopy logical drives, or
FlashCopy repository logical drives.
