Before you begin

The aggregate must be offline.

All of the FlexVol volumes contained by the aggregate must be deleted.
Steps
1.
From the
Home

Ensure that the left navigation pane displays either the cluster hierarchy or the storage controllers hierarchy.
3.
In the navigation pane,
click

>
Aggregates
.
4.
Select one or more aggregates that you want to delete and click
Delete
.
5.
