Oracle^® SuperCluster M8 and SuperCluster M7 Administration Guide

Drop a Storage Server

1. From Oracle ASM, drop the Oracle ASM disks on the physical disk.

   ALTER DISKGROUP diskgroup-name DROP DISK asm-disk-name

   To ensure the correct redundancy level in Oracle ASM, wait for the rebalance to complete before proceeding.

2. Remove the IP address entry from the cellip.ora file on each database server that accesses the storage server.
3. From the storage server, drop the grid disks, cell disks, and cell on the physical disk.

   DROP CELLDISK celldisk-on-this-lun FORCE

4. Shut down all services on the storage server.
5. Power down the cell.
