Disabling Volume Security

If you follow the procedure below to manipulate a security group, you will be able to disable security on volumes in the security group. If security is disabled, volumes in the security group are accessible from all hosts and are usable as secondary volumes (that is, copy destination volumes) for copy operations, regardless of whether the security group is an access group or a pool group. To restore security, you can restore it in an easy and simple operation.

If you are sure that you will not need to restore security, you can delete your security group to disable security. For details on how to delete security groups, see Deleting Security Groups” on page 61.
