Required arguments
[-d|--storage-volumes] path[, path...] * List of one or more storage volumes to forget.

Description
Storage volumes can be remembered even if a cluster is not currently in contact with them. Use this command to tell the cluster
that the storage volumes are not coming back and therefore it is safe to forget about them.
You can use the storage-volume forget command only on storage volumes that are unclaimed or unusable, and unreachable.
This command also forgets the logical unit for this storage volume.
Use the storage-volume forget command to tell the cluster that unclaimed and unreachable storage volumes are not
coming back and it is safe to forget them.
Forgotten storage volumes are removed from the context tree.
Use the --verbose argument to print a message for each volume that could not be forgotten.
Use the logical-unit forget command for the functionality supported by the removed arguments.
Example

VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/storage-elements/storage-volumes> forget --storage-volume

Forget all unclaimed, unused, and unreachable storage volume on the cluster:
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/storage-elements/storage-volumes> storage-volume forget *

Use the --verbose argument to display detailed information while you forget all unclaimed, unused, and unreachable storage
volumes on the cluster:
