Dell PowerStore Protecting Your Data

Unassign a protection policy

About this task

Removing the protection policy from a storage resource results in the following:

  • Scheduled snapshots and replication, based on the rules that are associated with the policy stop.
  • Existing snapshots remain, and are retained in the system, according on the snapshot rule settings when they were created.
  • The destination storage resource stays in read-only mode. You can clone the destination storage resource to get a read/write copy or change the replication destination attribute in the Properties page of the storage resource.
NOTE:You cannot unassign a protection policy while importing is in progress.
NOTE:Unassigning a protection policy that includes a synchronous replication rule can be done only from the system that has the read/write policy (and not the read-only copy of the policy).

Steps

  1. Select the check box of the storage resource to which you want to assign a protection policy.
  2. For volumes, volume groups, and file systems, select Protect > Unassign Protection Policy. For NAS servers, select More Actions > Unassign Protection Policy.
  3. Click Unassign to confirm.
