This might also take a while. If you want to completely wipe your server
then halt the server and do from the command line:
WARNING: This will completely wipe your server and all your configuration
settings.
./dsmserv format <# of log vols> <path to log vol> ... <# of db vols) <path to
db vol> ...
for example:
./dsmserv format 2 /mnt/log/log01.dsm /mnt/log/log02.dsm 1 /mnt/db/db01.dsm
Do this only for your primary mirror copy. you can redo the mirrors later.
