Renaming or deleting a compatibility mode aggregate
To rename a compatibility mode aggregate, use the IDCAMS ALTER
command with the NEWNAME parameter. You cannot rename an aggregate
if it is mounted.
After the rename is done, the name of the file system stored
in the zFS aggregate will not match the aggregate name. This
is a requirement for compatibility mode zFS aggregates. To reconcile
the file system and aggregate name, the zFS file system must be mounted
initially as read/write after the IDCAMS RENAME is complete. This
allows zFS to reconcile the file system name with the new aggregate
name. After the name is reconciled, the aggregate can then be mounted
read-only.
To
delete a compatibility mode aggregate, use the IDCAMS utility DELETE
command. You cannot delete an aggregate if it is mounted.Figure 2 shows a sample job that deletes both
the cluster name and the data component. Figure 2. Example job to delete
