Removing HBAs from a Server
Before removing an HBA, make sure that no volumes are mounted to this server through
this HBA. If you remove an active HBA, the server that is using the volume no longer has
access to that volume and will receive read or write errors. When you map a volume to a
server, you are really mapping that volume to one (or possibly more than one) of the server
HBAs. When you remove an HBA to which a volume is mapped, the maps are also deleted.
Note Note that when an HBA is removed from a server, any mapping through those HBA
ports will be automatically reevaluated and moved to other HBA ports on the server
if any are available.
