Description

This command removes an array MDisk from the configuration. Each array is divided into candidate drives.
Remember: This command cannot be used to remove an array MDisk from a child pool.
Note: If rmarray is used to remove an array that contains compressed member drives, it causes all compressed drive members to perform a format. The format must complete before the drives come online as candidates available for use.
