Volume delete fails due to association with an application

Hello All,

I'm hoping someone could guide me through how to properly disassociate a Volume from its Application and or completely delete the application and its volume. I am trying to clear out applications from a recently decommissioned FAS2700. It is running on ONTAP 9.13.1. I'm hoping not to completely wipe the system but clear out some volumes.

 

The Web interface doesn't allow me to delete the application or delete the volume from the application. The overview page for the application is blank. It doesn't even allow me to create a new application.

 

I have looked at  "Volume delete" fails due to association with an Application - NetApp Knowledge Base but it asks to contact NetApp Support which I do not have access to unfortunately.

 

Thanks

Not sure if there is support still via the web interface , you can use application CLI to manage the volumes which are part of the application. The cli commands are not available via adanced or admin priviledge , it is available only via diag priviledge , set -privilege diagnostic). Use the below CLI to clean up the volume and it is association with the application,

 

application volume show (to get the list of volumes which are part of a given application)

* application -volume remove -volume <volume name> -vserver <vserver name>

*  application show-details ( get the objects associated with the application)

*  (After removing all the assoicated objects of the application)

* application metadata delete and application hostdata delete can be used to delete the last traces of the application.
