removing the system director storage group but keeping other storage group data

$

Hi

we have a ISIS 5000-32TB System Director conneted to 2x ISIS 5000 Expension engines (2x32TB)  - total of three engines.

The system director and the 1st expension engine are on the same storage group, and the 2nd expension engine is on a sepearte storage group.

what we need to do:

1. add a 4th expesion engine as a seperate storage group.

2. remove the 1st expension engine (its got a problematic hardware that needs testing in a non-production environment) 

3. configure the system director as a seperate storage group.

Now, i know that in order to remove the 1st expsnsion engine, i must delete all data from the both members on that storage group (the system director and the storage group).

But, if i delete all data from that storage group, will the 2nd expnsion engine (seperate storage group) will still be avalible?

after deleting the storage group and before reconfigure the system director as a seperate storage group, there will be no issues if the system director itslef is not configured as a storage group, but only the expnesion engine is configured as storage group?

Can someone help with a step by step guide for that?

all system running 4.6.1.1

 

Thanks!!!
