storage_domain excludeDriveGroup

Removes the specified drive groups from the containing Storage Domains.

SYNOPSIS

storage_domain ‑excludeDriveGroup 
   ‑driveGroup driveGroup‑id‑or‑fqn [,driveGroup‑id‑or‑fqn]...
   [‑priority {default | maximumSpeed | minimumImpact}]

   [{‑sessionKey | ‑u admin‑user ‑oracleFS oracle‑fs‑system}]
   [{‑outputformat | ‑o} { text | xml }]
   [{‑timeout timeout‑in‑seconds | ‑verify | ‑usage | ‑example | ‑help}] 

DESCRIPTION

When drive groups are removed from a Storage Domain, the system migrates the data that currently exists on the drive groups to other drive groups of the same Storage Class. If no other drive groups of the same Storage Class exist in the Storage Domain, the request fails. To resolve, modify the Storage Class of the volume, which causes the system to migrate the data from the drive group. Then, submit the request again to exclude the drive group.

To minimize the amount of data migration, select all of the drive groups that you want to remove and remove them in a single operation.
CAUTION
After submitting an exclusion request, do not remove any drives from the drive groups that you identified in the request. Removing a drive prematurely can result in data loss.
After a drive group is removed from a Storage Domain, the drive group has the status of Unassigned. The drive group can then be assigned to another Storage Domain or deleted from the system.
Note: The Oracle FS System generates a system alert for each drive group that is successfully removed.
Note: Administrators with primary administrator or admin1 roles are authorized to run the storage_domain ‑excludeDriveGroup command.

OPTIONS

priority
Specifies the priority of the background processes:
