Deleting a File System

2Select the file system you want to delete, and click Delete.

If you are deleting a managed file system, you are warned that deleting this file system will delete all associated data and you will not be able to recover it. You are also warned that deleting this managed file system restarts the StorNext Storage Manager.

If you are deleting a non-managed system, you are warned that all files and directories in the file system will be permanently deleted. Click OK to Continue.

3Click OK to close the warning message window.

4After the Status screen informs you that the file system was successfully deleted, click Close.
