To Delete Alternate Paths For Multiple External Lus At One Time - HP StorageWorks User Manual

NOTE: Use the Delete Paths window to delete paths to multiple external LUs at one time. However, the
deleted path settings might not be applied because of the current path setting of each volume. After you set
the deletion in the Delete Paths window, check whether or not the new path settings can be applied in the
Path Setting window for each external LU. If the setting cannot be applied, the setting from the Delete Paths
window does not appear on the Path Setting window. The setting from the Delete Paths window also does
not appear in the Preset list or in the LU Operation pane.
