Sun Cluster 3.1 - 3.2 With Network-Attached Storage Devices Manual for Solaris OS

ProcedureHow to Remove a Network Appliance NAS Device From a Cluster

Before You Begin

This procedure relies on the following assumptions:


Note –

When you remove the device from cluster configuration, the data on the device is not available to the cluster. Ensure that other shared storage in the cluster can continue to serve the data when the Network Appliance NAS device is removed.


This procedure provides the long forms of the Sun Cluster commands. Most commands also have short forms. Except for the forms of the command names, the commands are identical. For a list of the commands and their short forms, see Appendix A, Sun Cluster Object-Oriented Commands, in Sun Cluster 3.1 - 3.2 Hardware Administration Manual for Solaris OS.

To perform this procedure, become superuser or assume a role that provides solaris.cluster.read and solaris.cluster.modify RBAC authorization.

  1. From any cluster node, remove the device.

    • If you are using Sun Cluster 3.2, use the following command:


      # clnasdevice remove myfiler
      

      For more information about the clnasdevice command, see the clnasdevice(1CL) man page.

    • If you are using Sun Cluster 3.1, use the following command:


      # scnas -r -h myfiler
      
      -r

      Remove the device from cluster configuration.

      -h

      Enter the name of the NAS device you are removing.

  2. Confirm that the device has been removed from the cluster.

    • If you are using Sun Cluster 3.2, use the following command:


      # clnasdevice list
      
    • If you are using Sun Cluster 3.1, use the following command:


      # scnas -p
