Deleting aggregates

You can use System Manager to delete aggregates when you no longer require the data in the aggregates. However, you cannot delete the root aggregate because it contains the root volume, which contains the system configuration information.

Before you begin

All the volumes and the associated Storage Virtual Machines (SVMs) contained by the aggregate must be deleted.
The aggregate must be offline.

Procedure

Choose one of the following methods:
- Click the Storage Tiers tab.
- Click Hardware and Diagnostics > Aggregates.
Select one or more aggregates that you want to delete, and then click Delete.
Select the confirmation check box, and then click Delete.
