remove RC empty

[Fabiopre]

I need to delete a replica, but there are NO mapped volumes inside it. When I delete the replica I get this error.

Hello @Fabiopre ,

The error message which you have provided above, indicates that the virtual volume set (vvset) has been exported to host set GUA-HOST_SET_CLUMAIN, which is preventing the deletion of replica.

Unexport the vvset and then try deleting a replica.

The lun is exported and in production and it is not possible to unexported, the issue is that the replica does NOT contain replicated luns, is this a bug?

Hello @Fabiopre ,

Please find the procedure:

If the Remote Copy groups have already been stopped, issue the following command:
1. cli% stoprcopy -clear
The stoprcopy -clear command:
• Deletes all Remote Copy configuration data.
• Removes any virtual volume sets that were automatically created for Remote Copy group.
• Releases all resources used by Remote Copy.
• Is not reversible.

2. To remove a Remote Copy setup completely, issue the following command:
cli% stoprcopy -stopgroups -clear
The stoprcopy -stopgroups -clear command:
• Stops Remote Copy on all groups.
• Deletes all Remote Copy configuration data.
