REMOVE Command—Closes a Switch

Use the REMOVE command to close and unallocate a switch. This allows the switch to be taken offline, or to be used by another system component. Existing port connectivity is not affected.

This command has the following syntax:

REMove  switch
  [GLObal | LOCal]  [SYStem=sysspec]
switch

Specifies the switch to be closed and unallocated.
