Deleting an Enhanced FlashCopy Image Group (with options)

When you delete an Enhanced FlashCopy image from an Enhanced FlashCopy group, the system
performs the following actions:
v Deletes the Enhanced FlashCopy image from the storage subsystem.
v Releases the repository's reserve space for reuse within the Enhanced FlashCopy group.
v Disables all the associated Enhanced FlashCopy logical drives that exist for the deleted Enhanced
FlashCopy image.
For an Enhanced FlashCopy consistency group you can delete:
v A single Enhanced FlashCopy image.
v Multiple Enhanced FlashCopy images that have the same sequence number and creation timestamp.
When an Enhanced FlashCopy image(s) is deleted from an Enhanced FlashCopy consistency group, the
system performs the following actions:
v Deletes the Enhanced FlashCopy images from the storage subsystem.
v Releases the repository's reserve space for reuse within the an Enhanced FlashCopy consistency group.
v Moves any member logical drive, associated with the deleted Enhanced FlashCopy image(s), to a
Stopped state.
v Disables the member Enhanced FlashCopy logical drives associated with the deleted Enhanced
FlashCopy image(s).
To delete the Enhanced FlashCopy image, use this command:
delete EnhancedFlashCopyImage
Optionally you can choose to keep a number of Enhanced FlashCopy images with either of these
parameters:
v deleteCount – This parameter deletes the oldest Enhanced FlashCopy image first and continues to
delete the Enhanced FlashCopy images in the order of creation, until reaching the number that you
enter. If the number that you enter is greater than the number of Enhanced FlashCopy images, then all
of the Enhanced FlashCopy images are deleted.
