Deleting a Logical Library

A logical library can be removed from the ACSLS configuration when it is no longer needed. Removing a logical library also removes all logical drives, volume assignments, and client mappings. The number assigned to this logical library can now be used when a new logical library is created. ACSLS does allow gaps in logical library numbering, but will reuse available numbers.

Note:

Remove any logical libraries that are associated with a physical ACS before removing the ACS from your library configuration. This ensures proper removal of associated fibre channel connections.

Before you remove a logical library, note the following points:

  • The logical library should be offline.

  • All logical drives should be offline.

This ensures that no client operations are in progress when deleting the library. If a logical drive or volume is found to be in use, the logical library is not deleted.
