Removing quorum disks

When the GAD pairs no longer uses the quorum disk, remove the quorum disk from both primary and secondary storage systems.

 After you remove a quorum disk, the Device Manager - Storage Navigator error message (06205 068882) or CCI error message (SSB1:2E10, SSB2:A007) might be displayed. In this case, the external volume is not displayed on the Quorum disk tab of the Remote Connection window because the quorum disk was deleted successfully, but the quorum disk management information remains in the external volume. If this happens, format the external volume.
