Can't delete volume

$

Pardon my naivete, I"ve not used NetApp much.  I've inherited an old FAS8040 running OnTap 8.2.4. It's out of support and the only thing I need to do is securely erase the disks prior to system disposal. So I want to run disk  sanitize. To do that (as I understand it) I have to delete the aggregates and make all the disks spares. So to do that I need to delete the volumes. There were 481 and I was able to delete all but 53 of them. They give this error:

 

dco-prod-netapp::*> volume delete -vserver es-prod-netapp-vs2 -volume urcdev_data_a_vol

Error: command failed: Volume urcdev_data_a_vol in Vserver es-prod-netapp-vs2 must be offline to be deleted.

 

dco-prod-netapp::*> volume offline -vserver es-prod-netapp-vs2 -volume urcdev_data_a_vol

Warning: Volume "urcdev_data_a_vol" on Vserver "es-prod-netapp-vs2" must be unmounted before being taken offline or restricted. Clients will not be able to access the affected volume and related
junction paths after that. Do you still want to unmount the volume and continue? {y|n}: y
vol offline: Error offlining volume "es-prod-netapp-vs2:urcdev_data_a_vol". Error while deleting junction.

 

dco-prod-netapp::*> volume modify -vserver es-prod-netapp-vs2 -volume urutst_tmp_a_vol -state force-offline

Warning: Forcing offline volume urutst_tmp_a_vol in Vserver es-prod-netapp-vs2 can potentially disrupt access to files in other volumes.
Do you want to continue? {y|n}: y

Volume modify successful on volume: urutst_tmp_a_vol

 

dco-prod-netapp::*> volume delete -vserver es-prod-netapp-vs2 -volume urutst_tmp_a_vol

Warning: Are you sure you want to delete volume "urutst_tmp_a_vol" in Vserver "es-prod-netapp-vs2" ? {y|n}: y
[Job 39372] Job is queued: Delete urutst_tmp_a_vol.

Error: command failed: [Job 39372] Job failed: Failed to delete junction from volume rootvol_esprd_vs2 on Vserver es-prod-netapp-vs2. Reason: The volume or plex is offline.

 

 

Any pointers would be appreciated.
