disk remove dead_partitions
To remove all dead partitions from a SCSI disk, use the disk
remove dead_partitions command. A dead partition is a
partition that is no longer used by any array.
Typically, you use this command only under specific
circumstances. For example, if you remove a disk from a redundant
array and then later add the disk to the controller, the partition on
the reinserted disk (which was previously part of the redundant
array) is no longer useful. In this case, you use this command and
specify the disk that was added to the controller again.
If a partition is dead, the ":" (colon) in the Partition Offset:Size
column (displayed with the array list command) changes to a
"!" (exclamation point).
Syntax
disk remove dead_partitions {scsi_device}
Parameters
{scsi_device}
Specifies the ID for the SCSI disk from which you want to
remove all dead partitions. A SCSI ID consists of a SCSI
channel number (for example, 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.), SCSI device ID
(0 through 15 inclusive), and SCSI device logical unit number
(0 through 7 inclusive).

Examples
The following example removes all dead partitions that reside on a
SCSI disk device (SCSI channel number 0, SCSI device ID 2, and
SCSI device logical unit number 0):
AAC0>disk remove dead_partitions (0,02,0)
Executing: disk remove dead_partitions (CHANNEL=0,ID=2,LUN=0)
