GUI – Detaching storage pools from services

When required, you can detach a storage pool from a service to which it is attached.

About this task

  • A detached storage pool can no longer be managed by the included solution components.
  • A detached storage pool becomes available for allocation by other existing services.
  • After the detachment, you can attach the pool again to fully restore its management.

Procedure

  1. On the Spaces/Services pane, click the service from which you want to detach one or more pools. The pools that are currently attached to the service are highlighted on the Storage Systems pane.
  2. Click on the pool that you want to detach. The pool color changes to gray to indicate the successful detachment.

    You can continue the process by clicking the other pools attached to the selected service.
