how do you destroy a clariion array and reformat

[smithm21emc]

I remember there is a cli command to format the clariion array and set it back to factory defaults. I forgot the navicli command to do that. I don't want to use disk erasure and am looking for the best way to WIPE the whole clariion array and start from scratch. Any help or direction would be appreciated...thx

I believe that "initializearray" is the navicli command you are looking for.

I think your right...do you know what the full command line for that is? thx

Nope, and I don't have a spare array to run it against. Sorry. Time for a little trial and error I think.
