You might need to delete an NSS pool to create more free space for other pools. After you delete a pool, ownership of the space for the pool is removed and the free space becomes available. You can assign this space to other NSS pools, as desired, to increase their size.
IMPORTANT:If you delete a pool, you cannot restore any of the volumes in that pool.
The Delete option on the Pool Management page removes one or more selected pools from the server, including all member partitions and the data on them.
WARNING:Deleting a pool destroys all volumes in the pool and destroys all the data in them. These volumes cannot be restored.
You cannot delete a system pool using iManager. Deleting a system pool removes the operating system. You need to reinstall NetWare to delete a system pool. However, if the system pool you want to delete does not contain the active operating system (for example, a remnant on a previously used disk), you can rename the pool, then delete it.
Deleting a pool removes the ownership of the space it occupied, freeing the space for reassignment. If the pools you want to delete are active, deactivate them before you delete them.
