CMMVC8699E: The command failed because the volume is image mode and has FlashCopy maps, either remove the FlashCopy maps first or use -force.

Explanation

An attempt was made to delete an image mode volume that has FlashCopy maps.

User Response

Complete the following steps:
  1. Make sure that you specified the correct volume.
  2. If so, remove the FlashCopy maps by using the rmfcmaps command and retry the rmvdisk command.
  3. Alternatively, you can retry the rmvdisk command with the -force parameter. Using the -force parameter bypasses all built-in safety checks.
