You will probably see data like: admin*.

If so, you are lucky! If not, you can do the following:

Every disk in the cage must have 0GB used data (Column: Used | OK).

removespare -f n:a (n for physical disk ID).

Remove spare chunklets from each disk to remove.

Check and Note the IDs of the disks on the cage(s) you want to remove.

So, start with a SSH to the storage system. Verify that the disks on the cage(s) to be removed have only spare chunklets (you can type showpd -c)Īfter that, we can begin the process of Cage/Disk removal.Īs I mentioned before, be aware that this involves some risk and you must have some plan B like Backups outside the Storage.After all the migrations you can delete the old Volumes and CPGs.When using Adaptive Optimization (AO), change the AO-configuration to remove CPG that contains disks of cage to remove.

You need Dynamic Optimization license to tune VVs or Create new Volumes on the new CPG and if you use VMware/Hyper-V, you can Storage vMotion to the new disks

Use Tune Virtual Volume (VV) to move the Data to this new CPG.

If you have one or more CPG with all the same type of disks (the standard procedure), you must create a new CPG with disk filtering enable so you can use all the disks that are not on the cage to be removed.

Migrate/move all the data from the disk cages you want to remove.

Change to maintenance mode in Service Processor.

It's not mandatory, but having a HPE support contract it's kind a handy.

You must have free space on the remaining cages to accommodate all of you data.Do it after hours, this change it's very disk IOPS consuming.This operation takes some time (depending the size ans speed of the disks).If you have RemoteCopy in place with RCIP or RCFC, you should stop the replication.Let's first see the requirements for this operation. This process involve some risks but it can be done completely Online and without disruption.

In this Post I will show you how to remove one or more Cages completely or some disks from a 3PAR Storage system.
