Configuration edit results:

Unable to establish connection with the device (Device Id: 1). Device is down, not reachable, or unable to accept requests.

Solution

  • This is expected because to delete LSYS, the root device must be in the UP state. When delete is initiated, space will attempt to delete the LSYS config from the root device; if it is unable to do so, then it will fail.
  • At the same time, deleting the root devices will delete the whole device with LSYS.
  • If you want only the LSYS to be removed, then ensure that the root devices are powered on.
