Deleting access points from an extended storage pool

You can delete one or more unused access points (mount points, buckets, or containers) from an existing extended storage pool.

Procedure

  1. On the left side of the Storage page, click the Pools tab.

  2. On the Pools panel, click the table row that contains the name of the pool from which you want to delete one or more access points.

  3. At the top of the panel that opens, click the tab that corresponds to the type of access point that’s contained in the pool (Mount Points, Buckets, or Containers).

    The AccessPointType panel opens, displaying a table that contains a list of existing access points (mount points, buckets, or containers) that can be included in the type of storage pool that you’re currently configuring. The access points that are currently included in the pool are selected.

  4. Deselect each existing access point that you want to delete from the storage pool.

    Note

    After you store data on an NFS volume, you cannot delete it from its NFS storage pool. Also, you cannot delete all of the access points in a storage pool if that pool is currently used for a storage tier that’s defined for a namespace by its service plan.

  5. Click Update Settings.
