rmfcmap
Use the rmfcmap command to delete an existing mapping.
Syntax
Parameters
- -force
- (Optional) Specifies that the target volume is brought online. This parameter is required if the FlashCopy® mapping is in the stopped state.
- fc_map_id | fc_map_name
- (Required) Specifies the ID or name of the FlashCopy mapping to delete. Enter the ID or name last on the command line.
Description
The
rmfcmap command deletes the specified mapping if the mapping is in the
idle_or_copied or stopped state. If it is in the stopped
state, the -force parameter is required. If the mapping is in any other
state, you must stop the mapping before you can delete it.
Deleting a mapping only deletes the logical relationship between the two volumes; it does not affect the volumes themselves. However, if you force the deletion, the target volume (which might contain inconsistent data) is brought back online.
