3.4.6 Deleting a Partition

You can delete a partition when you no longer need it and you want to use the space for another purpose.

Caution

Deleting a partition deletes all data contained in the partition.

Note

array. You must stop the utility, if allowed, or let it finish before you can delete the partition.

In the Select an Array to View LUN Information panel, select the array whose partition you want to delete.
