Precautions
- The essence of deleting a remote replication consistency group is to delete the consistency group configuration information stored on both local and remote storage devices.
- If a remote replication link fails, you must forcibly delete the consistency group from the local and remote devices respectively.
- After a consistency group is deleted, you cannot centrally manage the remote replication pairs in the group.
Procedure
- Choose Data Protection > Protection Entity > Protection Group > Remote Replication Consistency Group.
- Select one or more desired remote replication consistency groups and click Delete.
You can also click More on the right of a desired remote replication consistency group and select Delete.
- Confirm your operation as prompted.
