Delete Metro Mirror relationship

Use this page to select either a source volume or target volume on which a specific Metro Mirror relationship is deleted against.

Introduction

The deletion is applied to the volume that you selected. For example, if you select a target volume, the deletion only affects the relationship for which it is a target volume.
Note: You must have created a Metro Mirror relationship and it must be listed in the table before you can delete it.

Before you issue this request, you should verify whether there are some active paths between the respective source and target LSSs that are associated with the specific relationship. When you delete a Metro Mirror relationship, the relationship between the source and target volume ends, if all the paths are available to the target volume.

Upon your confirmation, the specific relationship is deleted on the source volume. As a result, the selected source and the target volume go to a simplex state.
Terminate on target
Upon your confirmation, the specific relationship is deleted on the target volume. As a result, the source volume is in suspended state and the target volume in a simplex state. This option is useful in a disaster situation when the local site has gone down.
