Dell Storage Manager 2020 R1 Administrator's Guide

Delete a Disk

Deleting a disk removes that disk object from Unisphere. Before deleting the disk object, you must release the disk, moving the data off the disk.

Prerequisites

  • The disk failed and it does not have any allocated blocks.
  • The disk was removed from the enclosure.
  • If the disk was in an enclosure that has been removed, that enclosure object must be deleted first.

Steps

  1. If the Dell Storage Manager Client is connected to a Data Collector, select a Storage Center from the Storage view.
  2. Click the Hardware tab.
  3. In the Hardware tab navigation pane, expand the enclosure and select Disks.
    The Disks view is displayed.
  4. In the right pane, click the Disks subtab, then select the disk and click Delete.
    The Delete dialog box opens.
  5. Click OK.
