Removing resources from a resource group

Before removing resources from a resource group, consider the following:

• The resources removed from a resource group are returned to meta_resource.

• Resources cannot be deleted from meta_resource.

• LDEVs with the same pool IDs or journal IDs cannot be partially removed. For example, if two LDEVs are carved from the same pool, you cannot remove only LDEV1 from the resource group and leave LDEV2. Use the sort function to sort the LDEVs by pool ID or journal ID, then select them and remove them all at once.

• If virtual storage machine attributes differ between meta_resource and the resource group:

• LDEVs cannot be added to the resource group when virtual LDEV IDs are assigned to LDEVs in meta_resource.

• LDEVs and host groups cannot be added to the resource group when LUN paths are assigned to LDEVs and host groups in meta_resource.

• You must have a Security Administrator (View and Modify) role to perform this task.

To remove resources from a resource group:

1. In the Storage Systems tree on the left pane of the main window, click Administration>Resource Groups.

2. Click a resource group to remove in the Resource Groups tab.

3. Select one or more resources to remove from the resource group, then click Remove Resources.

4. In the Confirm window, confirm the settings, in Task Name type a unique name for this task or accept the default, then click Apply.

If Go to tasks window for status is checked, the Tasks window opens.
