Verify Removal of an NVMe Storage Drive

Before You Begin

To perform this task, the hotplug daemon must be enabled on the host.

• Verify that the NVMe drive has been removed. Type:

  # hotplug list –lc

  The following output appears (the removed drive will show the EMPTY state):

  # hotplug list -lc
