CMUG00002W The following ranks have volumes configured on them: VALUE_1. VALUE_0 volumes will be deleted as part of the delete rank operation. Select Continue to delete the ranks and volumes or select Cancel to cancel the delete rank operation. NOTE: If you want to delete only volumes, it is not necessary to delete the ranks that contain the volumes.

Explanation

Deleting a rank also deletes the volumes that are configured on that rank. If you delete a rank, you must create a new rank before you can create new volumes on that rank. Creating a new rank requires a long wait time for the rank to format. If you want to delete only volumes and do not want to delete a rank, select Cancel to cancel the delete rank operation and use the Delete action on the Volumes main page to delete the volumes.
