Deleting vFiler units
You can delete or destroy a vFiler unit and return storage resources back to the hosting storage system. On a storage system with the MultiStore license enabled, you cannot destroy vfiler0.
Before you begin
•
LUNs that are mapped to the vFiler unit's storage must be unmapped.
•
The vFiler unit must be stopped.
•
If there are multiple vFiler units in an IPspace, routes used by other vFiler units must not be associated with the vFiler unit that you want to delete. Otherwise, deleting the vFiler unit makes the other vFiler units in the IPspace inaccessible.
