Deleting a recovered universal share accelerator

The NetBackup web UI does not manage the recovered universal share accelerator. It requires you to manually delete it. Use the following procedures to delete a recovered accelerator.

The ID of usa_snap is used as the new accelerator ID in the following procedures.

On the client side:

  1. Stop the universal share accelerator.

    vpfs_accelerator.sh --stop --share-id=usa_snap

  2. Delete the accelerator.

    vpfs_accelerator.sh --delete --share-id=usa_snap

On storage server side:

  • Unregister the share ID.

    vpfscld --manage_accl_id --unreg --share_id usa_snap --mode byo --client usademo.name.name.domain.com
