lsm_acces...oup_delete(3)

💖 lsm_access_group_delete — from the Libstoragemgmt C API Manual, section 3 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're deleting an access group and we're doing it correctly. this is lsm_access_group_delete, and yes it's giving main character energy for a function whose whole job is yeeting a group into the void 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

lsm_access_group_delete — deletes an access group. that's it, that's the whole vibe. bye girl 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int lsm_access_group_delete (lsm_connect *conn, lsm_access_group
*access_group, lsm_flag flags);

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• conn — a valid lsm_connect pointer. like, actually valid. don't be weird about it 🎀
• access_group — pointer to the lsm_access_group that's getting deleted. this is your target, your girl, your moment ✨
• flags — reserved for future use, so it must be LSM_CLIENT_FLAG_RSVD. no freestyling. the future hasn't happened yet 🌸

---

✨ VERSION ✨

1.0 — baby's first version number, iconic, no notes 💜

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So. This function deletes an access group. That's the whole plot. 🔥

BUT — and this is the part where you lean in — only an access group with no volume masked can be deleted. if a volume is still masked to it, it's not going anywhere. it's booked and busy. the group stays. periodt 💀

---

✨ CAPABILITY ✨

LSM_CAP_ACCESS_GROUP_DELETE — check for this before you go deleting things, iykyk 🌈

---

✨ RETURN ✨

It hands you back an error code, as enumerated by lsm_error_number. the whole roster, no skips:

• LSM_ERR_OK — on success. we ate. 👑
• LSM_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT — when any argument is NULL, or it's not a valid lsm_connect pointer, or the flags are invalid. basically: something you passed was a mess 🙈
• LSM_ERR_NOT_FOUND_ACCESS_GROUP — when the access group isn't found. she's not here, bestie 😭
• LSM_ERR_IS_MASKED — when the access group has a volume masked. blocked. locked down. can't delete her 🦋
• LSM_ERR_NO_SUPPORT — not supported. the machine said no 💀

fr fr, check that return value. not every delete is a slay and the code will absolutely tell on you.

---

that's the whole page, angel 💖 go forth and delete responsibly (or don't delete, if the volume's masked, which is literally the whole rule) 🧚
