Deleting remote-copy consistency groups by using the CLI

You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to delete remote-copy consistency groups.

About this task

To delete existing remote-copy consistency groups, complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. To delete a remote-copy consistency group, run the rmrcconsistgrp command.
    For example, enter the following command:
    rmrcconsistgrp rc_consist_group_id 
    

    Where rc_consist_group_id is the ID of the consistency group to delete.

  2. If a remote-copy consistency group is not empty, you must use the -force parameter to delete the consistency group.
    For example, enter the following command:
    rmrcconsistgrp -force rc_consist_group_id 
    

    Where rc_consist_group_id is the ID of the consistency group to delete. This command causes all relationships that are members of the deleted group to become stand-alone relationships.

    Important: Using the -force parameter might result in a loss of access. Use it only under the direction of your support center.
