You can use the disk sanitize abort command to stop an ongoing sanitization process on one or more specified disks. If you use the disk sanitize abort command, the specified disk or disks are returned to the spare pool.
Step
- Enter the following command:disk sanitize abort disk_list
If the specified disks are undergoing the disk formatting phase of sanitization, the abort will not occur until the disk formatting is complete.
Data ONTAP displays the message Sanitization abort initiated. Once the process is stopped, Data ONTAP displays another message for each disk to inform you that sanitization is no longer in progress.
