Deleting ports from a host

You can delete ports from the Deleting Ports panel.

This task assumes that you have already launched the SAN Volume Controller Console.

Complete the following steps to delete ports from a host:
  1. Click Work with Hosts > Hosts in the portfolio. The Viewing Hosts panel is displayed.
  2. Select the host that you want to delete ports from and select Delete Ports from the task list. Click Go. The Deleting Ports panel is displayed.
  3. Select either Fibre Channel or iSCSI for the connection type.

    If you select Fibre Channel as the connection type, complete the following steps:

    1. Select a worldwide port name (WWPN) from the Available Ports list that your want to delete and click Add to include the WWPN in the Selected Ports list.

    If you select iSCSI as the connection type, complete the following steps:

    1. Select the iSCSI name from the Available iSCSI Names list that you want to delete, and click Add to include the iSCSI name in the Selected iSCSI Initiator list.
  4. Click OK. The Deleting Ports--Confirmation panel displays. Note: When you delete the port, all virtual disks (VDisks) no longer use the port. If this is the last port for a host, the host is also automatically deleted. If this is the case, select Force Delete on the Confirmation panel to delete the port and its associated host.
