Delete a pair

When you delete a pair, the Continuous Access Journal relationship between the P-VOL and S-VOL
is released. The data volumes and their data remain, but in SMPL status.
Prerequisite information
This operation can be performed from either the primary or secondary storage systems.
When a pair deletion is initiated, transfer of differential data from P-VOL to S-VOL is completed,
then the pair relationship is deleted and the volume's status becomes SMPL.
A pair can be deleted regardless of its status. However, data consistency is not guaranteed
unless status is Paired.
If the operation fails, the P-VOL nevertheless becomes SMPL. Transfer of differential data to
S-VOL is terminated.
Best practice is to perform pair deletion when I>O load is low. This reduces impact on
performance. Operations on multiple pairs with different statuses and in the same mirror may
result in suspension during high periods of write I/O.
