17.SH "Description"
18.PP
19The \fBmmdelnsd\fR command serves two purposes:
20.RS +3
21.HP 3
221. Delete NSDs from the GPFS cluster.
23.HP 3
242.
25Remove the unique NSD volume ID left on the disk after the failure of a
26previous invocation of the \fBmmdelnsd\fR command. The NSD had been
27successfully deleted from the GPFS cluster but there was a failure to clear
28sector 2 of the disk.
29.RE
30.PP
31The NSD being deleted cannot be part of any file system. Either the
32\fBmmdeldisk\fR or \fBmmdelfs\fR command must be issued prior to deleting
33the NSD from the GPFS cluster.
34.PP
35The NSD being deleted cannot be a tiebreaker disk. Use the \fBmmchconfig\fR command to assign new tiebreaker disks
36prior to deleting the NSD from the cluster.

40Upon successful completion of the \fBmmdelnsd\fR command, these tasks

45.HP 3

56cluster. Specify the names generated when the NSDs were created.
57Use the
58\fBmmlsnsd -F\fR command to display disk
59names. If there is more than one disk to be deleted, delimit each name
60with a semicolon (;) and enclose the list of disk names in quotation
61marks.

118You must have root authority to run the \fBmmdelnsd\fR command.
119.PP
120You may issue the \fBmmdelnsd\fR command from any node in the GPFS
121cluster.
122.PP
123When using the \fBrcp\fR and \fBrsh\fR commands for remote
124communication, a properly configured \fB.rhosts\fR file must exist
125in the root user's home directory on each node in the GPFS
126cluster. If you have designated the use of a different remote
127communication program on either the
128\fBmmcrcluster\fR
129or the
130\fBmmchcluster\fR command, you must
131ensure:
132.RS +3
133.HP 3
1341. Proper authorization is granted to all nodes in the GPFS cluster.
135.HP 3
1362. The nodes in the GPFS cluster can communicate without the use of a
137password, and without any extraneous messages.
