Solaris-Deleting failed state databases

I have two state databases on separate disks that later became raw partitions used by Oracle. When the raw partitions were defined, I think that they overlapped the state db’s because looking at a metadb command, I can see that these state databases are now invalid.

I would like to delete these state databases, but I want to make sure that this will NOT actually delete any of the data IN the state databases, since the raw partitions have overlapped them. I am hoping that the metadb -d command will only delete the reference to these invalid state databases, as I believe that if the actual blocks that the state databases are using were erased, it would corrupt the data in the raw partition used by Oracle’s redo logs. Does this make sense?

I would appreciate if someone, or several people could let me know for sure if deleting these state databases is safe for me to do. This is a very important production system. Thanks.
