The sign shows that it is still a meta. Expand it see the components.

Verify for no data existence.

Right click destroy

Finally if you see no change.

Restart the management sever.

Still if you see no change then : Execute : naviseccli -h -user -password -scope 0 getlun

Tell me the o/p

Thanks

Do you have data in the MetaLun ?

You will have to destroy the MetaLUN which unbinds all the component LUNs also. If you don't have data in it and don't want to use it further, you may do that .

Error: Unbind LUN-Being used by a feature of the storage system

This error occurs when the lun is assigned to a SG. If you want to unbind the you can follow the below steps in sequence.

1. Remove the LUN from the Storage Group. 

2. Right-click the metaLUN icon which is found under the owning SP, and select destroy. 

3. Verify Properties from RAID group that this metaLUN was originally part of to confirm    additional space has become available.

Destroying a META destroys all data and unbinds the LUNs that make it a META. You can then go and reallocate the space into LUNs again. Once youve destroyed the meta and if the space is not reflecting in the free space area then you may need to restart the managemnet server also.

Hope this helps

Thanks

Yes, this LUN still a part of Meta, simply destroying the meta will help him without any complications. I was waiting for him to do the same.

If you don't have any data and there is no need of the MetaLun, you can destroy the metaLun. This will unbind the components.

Vipin and Rupal,

Thanks for your valuable suggestions always. After destroy the meta, LUN23 and LUN25 was gone. Any possibilities to remove metalun by component wise?

MetaLUN

component0=LUN23

component1=LUN25

You will not be able to remove component wise once expanded.
