Figure 8-50   Delete Array MDisks window
Data on MDisks is migrated to other MDisks in the pool, assuming enough space is 
available on the remaining MDisks in the pool. After deleting an MDisk from a pool, its 
member drives return to candidate mode.
8.2.4  Selecting the tier for MDisks
The IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node Easy Tier feature is described in 2.5.12, “Easy 
Tier” on page 68
. In this section, we show how to adjust the tier settings.
There are two tiers: 
��
Generic SSD tier for storage made of solid-state drives, which is the faster-performing 
storage
��
Generic HDD tier for everything else
Available capacity: Make sure that you have enough available capacity left in the 
storage pool for the data on the MDisks to be removed.
