Renumbering a LUN

NOTE! Before renumbering a LUN, check your operating system documentation for any
additional information or steps that may be required to renumber a LUN.
To renumber a LUN, type:
arraycfg -L LUN -r newLUN <array-id>
LUN is the LUN to be renumbered
newLUN is a new available LUN number

Deleting a LUN

When a LUN is deleted, its capacity is returned to the pool of unallocated capacity space. Deleting a LUN
is a good way of freeing up capacity for the Active Hot Spare or for simply adding more unallocated
capacity to improve disk array performance.
CAUTION! All data on a LUN is lost when it is deleted. Make sure you backup any
important data on the LUN before deleting it.
NOTE! Before deleting a LUN, check your operating system documentation for any additional
information or steps that may be required to delete a LUN.
