Installing Base-VXFS 4.1, Base-VXVM 4.1
Chapter 328
b. To remove any LVM volumes using the disk, run the following command:
# lvremove
c. To erase the LVM disk headers, run the following command:
# pvremove
NOTE If the disk to be removed is the last disk in the volume group, you must use
vgremove to remove the volume group and pvremove to erase the LVM disk.
If the disk is not currently in use by any volume or volume group but has been
initialized by pvcreate, you must use pvremove to remove LVM disk.
The pvremove command is an LVM command designed to aid LVM and VxVM
coexistence on a system. As with LVM, VxVM partitions collections of disks into
groups. In LVM these are referred to as volume groups and in VxVM they are
referred to as disk groups or dynamic disk groups.
See “Installing Base-VXVM 4.1” on page 22 for installing Base-VXVM.
IMPORTANT Base-VXVM 4.1 introduces a new disk group layout 120. You must upgrade to
the new disk group layout, for existing DRL logs to function.
