How can I delete a Storage pool from Celerra
I would like to delete the storage pool from my Celerra. The backend Storage frame has already been decommissioned and now we would like to clean this up from the celerra console.
As the backend storage is not available, so cannot umnout the FS/Delete them before deleting the storage pool. Can someone suggest how to take this forward.

I dont think you can do that without help from support
you really should have deleted the objects before you took down the backend

I have he same issue with one of my units. the disks say "removed" and even in commandline I couldnt get it to delete anything using the engineering password.
I think the only solution is to wipe/reload the storage system tbh, someone else may have some options.

Hello cdntekkie,
Have you removed all allocated storage resources including LUN groups, LUNs, file systems, VMware datastores, or NAS servers? In most cases that is the reason that you are not able to delete a storage pool.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Unfortunately you cannot remove a storage pool or raid group where the disks contained are marked "Removed"... so far...
Im going to try to reload the software on the array today.
