This section explains the preparations and checks required before commencing uninstallation.
Pre-uninstallation Advisory Notes
Checking physical L-Server system images and cloning images
The L-Server generated by this product and system and cloning images collected by this product are deleted.
When the image file storage directory has been changed, system images and cloning images which were collected using Resource Orchestrator remain in the image file storage directory.
Checking HBA address rename
When using HBA address rename, the manager sets the WWN for the HBA of each managed server.
When uninstalling a manager be sure to do so in the following order:
Delete servers (*)
Uninstall the manager
* Note: For the server deletion method, refer to "9.2 Deleting Managed Servers" in the "User's Guide for Infrastructure Administrators (Resource Management) CE".
Note
When using HBA address rename, if the manager is uninstalled without servers being deleted, the WWNs of the servers are not reset to the factory default values.
Ensure uninstallation of managers is performed only after servers are deleted.
When operating without resetting the WWN, if the same WWN is setup on another server, data may be damaged if the volume is accessed at the same time.
