As it turns out, I have a couple of disk devices associated with this 
storage node, so I can't delete it without destroying those devices, can 
I? Or will simply disabling them allow me to remove the storage node? I've 
actually never had to remove a storage node before, since we've always had 
our storage node and server colocated on the same physical system.

Thanks.
