Deleting a file system

Before deleting a file system, unmount it on all nodes.

Specify the file system to be deleted on the mmdelfs command. For example, to delete the file system fs1, enter:

mmdelfs fs1

The system displays information similar to:

GPFS: 6027-573 All data on the following disks of fs1 will be destroyed:

    gpfs9nsd
    gpfs13nsd
    gpfs11nsd
    gpfs12nsd

GPFS: 6027-574 Completed deletion of file system fs1.
mmdelfs: 6027-1371 Propagating the cluster configuration data to all
  affected nodes.  This is an asynchronous process.
