Deleting and Later Recreating a ServeRAID II Logical Disk Resource

Deleting and Later Recreating a ServeRAID II Logical Disk Resource

This section describes how to delete and, later, recreate a ServeRAID logical disk resource without deleting a ServeRAID logical drive.

To delete a resource or resource group:

1.  If the resource or resource group is not currently owned by the cluster server from which you will  delete the group, move the resource or resource group to that cluster server.
2.  To delete the resource, run the Cluster Administration Utility program from the cluster server that  currently owns the resource or resource group.

   Note: You can also run the Cluster Administration Utility program from a remote administration system.

    Use the normal MSCS procedure for deleting a resource or a group. Refer to the documentation that  is included with the MSCS package for instructions.

3.  When the ServeRAID II resource is deleted, shut down and restart the cluster server from which the  resource was deleted.

   Note: Restarting one cluster server will not bring down the entire cluster.

To create a resource:

1.  If the group that will own the resource you are creating is not currently owned by the cluster server on  which you want to create the resource, move the group to the cluster server.
2.  To create the resource, run the Cluster Administration Utility program from the cluster server that  currently owns the resource group.

   Note: You can also run the Cluster Administration Utility program from a remote administration system.

    Create a new ServeRAID logical disk using the normal MSCS procedure for creating cluster resources.
    Refer to the documentation that is included with the MSCS package for instructions.
