acfsdismount removes the mount point (name space attachment) for the specified file system on the current node and dismounts the file system if it is mounted. When the file system is in the dismounted state, the data is preserved on the device and the file system can be re-mounted with the acfsmountvol command.
acfsdismount can fail in some circumstances because there are open file references from various programs, such as a virus scanner, Process Explorer, or Oracle Enterprise Manager.
Windows Administrator privileges are required to use the acfsdismount command.
