The Remove Network Server Storage Link (RMVNWSSTGL) command is used to remove an existing client storage space link from a network server description.

Notes:

1. Removing a client storage space link requires updating items such as network aliases that refer to the drive letter at which the storage space is linked.
2. Removing a client storage space that is linked to a network server description created with Server connection specified *IXSVR or *ISCSI for the Network server type (TYPE) parameter need to take the consideration that if any applications are installed on these drives, the drive may change causing the application to fail.
