Deleting Storage Management Logical Partitions
If you delete a storage logical partition, any resources in that storage logical partition will be
automatically returned to SLPR 0. SLPR 0 cannot be deleted
Note: Before deleting a storage logical partition, you must do the following:
• Delete all user accounts for that SLPR. For more information, see the HP StorageWorks
XP24000/XP20000 Remote Web Console User's Guide.
• Either set the license capacity for that SLPR to 0 GB, or disable the license for all program products
that are assigned to the SLPR. For more information, see
“
Partitioning and Allocating Licensed Capacity to Storage Logical Partitions ” on page 30.
1. Access the Partition Definition window, and select an SLPR in the Partition Definition tree on the
left side of the window to display the Storage Management Logical Partition window.
2. In the Logical Partition tree on the upper left portion of the window, right-click the storage logical
partition that you want to delete and click Delete SLPR from the pop-up menu.
3. Click Apply to apply the settings, or click Cancel to cancel the settings.
Cache Logical Partition Operations
The following items apply to CLPRs.
WARNINGS:
• Before you start a partition reconfiguration make sure that you have enough cache memory assigned
to a partition to support the disk storage assigned to that same partition. See
“
Cache Logical Partition (CLPR) ” on page 10 for more information on the required amount of
cache to support disk storage.
• As a general rule, you should perform cache logical partition operations either during the initial
installation and setup or during a maintenance window, because cache logical partition operations
can significantly degrade host performance. If you must perform such operations on a production
machine, you should use XP Performance Monitor to verify that the write pending rate, including
spikes, is well below 30%.
Note: Changes to CLPR/SLPR configurations may take hours to implement and cannot be aborted or
modified until all changes have completed. For more information on XP Performance Monitor, see the
HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 Performance Monitor User's Guide. For assistance or for more
information, contact your HP service representative.
cache logical partition operations have the following restrictions:
• You must have storage administrator access for all cache logical partition actions.
• If you have not yet created any cache logical partitions, all cache will belong to CLPR 0.
