Delete Multipathing Claim Rules

Use the esxcli commands to remove a multipathing PSA claim rule from the set of claim rules on the system.

Prerequisites

Install ESXCLI. See Getting Started with ESXCLI. For troubleshooting, run esxcli commands in the ESXi Shell.

Procedure

1. Delete a claim rule from the set of claim rules.
   esxcli storage core claimrule remove

   Note: By default, the PSA claim rule 101 masks Dell array pseudo devices. Do not delete this rule, unless you want to unmask these devices.

   The command takes the following options:

   Option	Description
   -c|--claimrule-class=<str>	Indicate the claim rule class (MP, Filter, VAAI).
   -P|--plugin=<str>	Indicate the plug-in.
   -r|--rule=<long>	Indicate the rule ID.

   This step removes the claim rule from the File class.
2. Remove the claim rule from the system.
   esxcli storage core claimrule load
   This step removes the claim rule from the Runtime class.
