Vserver/SVM Dismantling with PowerShell

Back in June I wrote the post: Vserver/Storage Virtual Machine (SVM) Dismantling.
To automate this process for lab/testing purposes only, the following script was written. It was tested on some old SVMs in a lab environment that needed getting rid of.

The 12 Steps

Its likely more steps will be required for certain SVM configurations - this was an adequate set of steps for the lab environment:

>>>>> STEP 1/12: Online All Volumes that have SnapMirrorDestinations
>>>>> STEP 2/12: Release SnapMirror Destinations
>>>>> STEP 3/12: Delete SnapMirrors
>>>>> STEP 4/12: Remove Vserver Peers
>>>>> STEP 5/12: Remove Vserver Transition Peers
>>>>> STEP 6/12: Unmount all volumes (but rootvol)
>>>>> STEP 7/12: Offline volumes (rootvol last)
>>>>> STEP 8/12: Destroy volumes (rootvol last)
>>>>> STEP 9/12: CIFS Server Delete
>>>>> STEP 10/12: Igroups Delete
>>>>> STEP 11/12: Remove SnapMirror Policies owned by vserver_admin
>>>>> STEP 12/12: SVM Delete

The Script

Save as say Dismantle-SVM.ps1 and run with PowerShell (e.g. PS C:\> .\Dismantle-SVM.ps1)

  1. 2 things missing, on top of my mind
    - clones => destroy clones first, then volumes
    - portsets

    1. Thank you very much for the comment Mirko. Excellent points, I'll be sure to add them in for the next version. Cheers, vCosonok!

    2. Updated last week with this post - http://www.cosonok.com/2014/12/svm-destroyer.html - and four more steps ...
      Remove all LUN Maps
      Remove Portsets
      Offline Clones
      Delete Clones

      Delete
