How to Detach a Submirror (DiskSuite Tool)

You might want to detach a submirror if you were going to reuse the underlying disks. You can detach that submirror without disrupting service from the system.

  1. Make sure you have met the prerequisites ("Prerequisites for Maintaining DiskSuite Objects"), and have read the preliminary information ("Preliminary Information for Mirrors").

  2. Double-click the Mirror object in the Objects list.

    The object appears on the canvas.

  3. Click inside the submirror to be detached.

  4. Drag the submirror out of the Mirror object to the canvas.

    If this is a two-way mirror, the mirror's status changes to "Urgent."

  5. Click the top rectangle of the Mirror object then click Commit.

  6. To verify that the mirror was committed, display the Configuration Log.
