Symptômes

Trying to delete a file system from the UI but the option is unavailable.

 

Cause

File system is mounted, and root replication checkpoints are still there even after deleting the Replication session associated to that File system.

 

Résolution

Tried deleting the file system from CLI and got "File system is mounted" error.

  1. Unmount the file system.

    $ server_umount {<movername>|ALL} -perm <fs_name>|<mount_point>

  2. Try deleting the file system.

    $ nas_fs -delete <fs_name>

Error 3104: <fs_name> : file system has backups in use.

  3. Check if any active Replication session is going on for that File system and if any checkpoints are still there. If they are present, then delete them.

    $ nas_replicate -delete {<name>|id=<sessionId>} [-mode {source|destination|both}]

$ nas_fs -d ckpt_name

  4. After deleting the Replication session, also sometimes root replication checkpoints stays.

    Delete them manually

    /nas/sbin/rootnas_fs -d id=XXX -o umount=yes -F -ALLOW_REP_INT_CKPT_OP

  5. Trying deleting the File system from the UI and it will be deleted successfully.
