HP P2000G3 - Remove FC Host

Hi,

 

We recently removed a virtual Hyper-V guest, from our server infrastructure, and also removed the vFC adapter from the virtual machine.

Afterwards ive tried to delete the 2 hosts in the HP P2000 G3, but were only allowed to remove one of the host profiles.

When trying to delete the last host profile from the Web GUI, we receive an error: "The command had an invalid value (xxxxxxxxxxx) - Host was discovered, so it cannot be deleted"

From what i could read from other forum posts, we have to delete it through CLI.

When trying to delete host in CLI (delete host VMname-P1), we receive an error "The command had an invalid value"

 

What is the correct way to delete the discovered host, which no longer exists ?

 

Thanks in advance.

you can unmap everything related, but discovered host will stay in the list (until a array reboot), AFAIK.

Hope this helps!

Hello,

 

Thanks for the reply.

There is no default / explicit mappings to the host.

If i understand it correctly, we have to take the array offline = downtime for the other servers using this array?

Consider to ignore this entry in the host list.


Hope this helps!
