Is there a way to cancel volume initialization starts by creating volume in E-Series?
Applies to
- E-Series
- SANtricity OS
- Immediate Availability Format (IAF)
Answer
No, there is no way to cancel IAF once it is started
Note:
- IAF is automatically triggered by creating volume
- This background operation can take long time but it is safe to use the volume during this
- IAF can be internally paused or interrupted by some events(controller reboot, power failure, etc) but automatically resumes once resolved
