CLI Command Descriptions
DELETE connection-name
Deletes a specified connection from the table of known connections maintained by the
controller, whether or not the host adapter is still physically connected to a controller
port.
The table of known host connections is maintained in the controller's memory. Once a
connection is added to the table, it stays there, even if the physical connection between
host adapter and controller port is severed. The only way to remove a connection from
the table is through this command.
NOTE: A connection with an access path explicitly enabled on a unit cannot be deleted. Access
path is enabled explicitly through the ENABLE_ACCESS_PATH qualifier of the ADD UNITS or
SET unit commands. If access path is generically enabled for all connections
(ENABLE_ACCESS_PATH= ALL), then any or all connections can be deleted. A connection
with explicit access path must have the access path disabled (through the
DISABLE_ACCESS_PATH qualifier of the SET unit command) before the connection can be
deleted.
