MSA 1040 Disk Erasure

[Stefano Colombo]

We're dismissing an MSA1040 and before shutting it down we'd like to perform a low-level disk erasure to safely wipe all data.

I couldn't find a specific command to do it, is there a way ?

We obviously  deleted all vdisks

thanks

@Stefano Colombo 
There is no SANITIZE or INSTANT ERASE in the MSA 1040.
Deleteing the VDISKs removes the disk-group metadata but does not delete the data.
HPE Does offer some data erasure services and other 3rd party services.

Depending on your requirements you can re-create a VDISK/Disk-Group and use available tools to perform data overwrites of the disks.
