If you have failed drives, they display broken in the
Container Type
column. (Failed
drives do not have ownership.)
The following output shows drives on the shelf being removed (shelf 2) are in a correct state for
removing the shelf. The aggregates are removed on all of the drives; therefore, a dash appears in the
Container Name
column for each drive. Ownership is also removed on all of the drives; therefore, a
dash appears in the
Owner
column for each drive.

shelf) to reduce the shelf weight, because shelf weight will become unbalanced.
If your system was shipped in a cabinet, you must first unscrew the two Phillips screws
securing the shelf to the rear uprights. The screws are located on the inside shelf walls of
the bottom NSM module. You should remove both NSM modules to access the screws.
6. If you are removing more than one shelf, repeat steps 2 through 5.
Otherwise, go to the next step.
