Deleting open systems volume groups

Complete this task to delete open systems volume groups, releasing any assigned volumes for assignment to other volume groups.

If the number of volumes in this volume group is not zero, the volumes that are assigned to this volume group go into an unassigned mode where they are eligible for assignment to other volume groups.

Note: The volume group is the link between the open systems volumes and the host attachments. If you delete a volume group that is attached to a host attachment identifier, the host attachment is not able to access the volumes.

In the navigation, select Real-time manager or Simulated manager > Configure storage > Open systems > Volume groups. On the Volume groups main page, in the Select storage unit drop-down list, select the storage unit that contains the volume group that you want to delete.
Select the volume group or groups that you want to delete.
In the Select Action drop-down list, select Delete, and then clickGo. A confirmation dialog box is displayed.
Confirm the action to complete the deletion of the selected volume groups.
