is specified. The shortened version is a four-decimal digit number with no
leading zeroes, prefixed with the letter P.
Note: All rank assignments
must be removed before extent pool can be deleted.
- To specify a range of extent pool IDs, separate the extent pool IDs with
a hyphen.
- You must separate multiple extent pool IDs or ranges of extent pool IDs
with a blank space between each ID or range of IDs.
