Hi

I'm  trying to remove a host from the P2000 g3  iscsi and I get an error 'The Command has an invalid value' when using the SMU.  I have removed all explicit  mappings for the host using SMU.  the host still shows as mapped.

When I check from the each controller using CLI they  show different mappings for that host with one controller show an explicit mapping (SMU shows the same default mappings the for host on each controller) . 

I have tied to unmap the volume from the host using  CLI command   'unmap volume host server1  vol2; but get an error the specified mapping was not found - unmapping failed.

I cleared this problem by shutting down all the servers using the SAN. This cleared the ‘mapped’ status on the controller allowing me to delete the hosts.
