Use this command to delete a storage pool. To delete a
storage pool, you must first delete all volumes assigned to the storage
pool.
You cannot delete a storage pool that is identified as
the next storage pool for another storage pool. For more information
on storage pool hierarchy, see the NEXTSTGPOOL parameter in the DEFINE
STGPOOL command.
Important: - Do not delete a storage pool that is specified as a destination
for a management class or copy group in the ACTIVE policy set. Client
operations might fail as a result.
- When deleting a copy storage pool that has been previously included
in a primary storage-pool definition (specifically in the COPYSTGPOOLS
list), you must remove the copy storage pool from the list prior to
deletion. Otherwise, the DELETE STGPOOL command
fails until all references to that copy pool have been removed. For
each primary storage pool with a reference to the copy storage pool
to be deleted, remove the reference by entering the UPDATE
STGPOOL command with the COPYSTGPOOLS parameter with all
previous copy storage pools except the copy storage pool to be deleted.
Privilege class
To issue this command, you
must have system privilege.
