Hi ... i'm new on this .... i'd like to know who to delete a LVM ...
I know right now this commands for creating a LVM .. but .. how can i delete:
- a filesystem
- a logical volume
- a volume group

FOR CREATING:
# Prepare the disk for LVM
pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0
# Create the volume group
mkdir /dev/vgnn
mknod /dev/vgnn/group c 64 0xnn0000
vgcreate /dev/vgnn /dev/dsk/c0t0d0
# Create the logical volume
lvcreate -n lvol1 /dev/vg01
# Create the file system in the LV
mkfs -F vxfs /dev/vg01/lvol1
#sapdata9 /oracle/SP1/sapdata9

AND FOR DELETEING?

Thanks.

To delete you need to:

- umount the filesystem:
umount /mount_point
- Youd don't need to delete previously the file system, just remove the logical volume:
lvremove /dev/vg01/lvol1
- Remove the volume group
vgremove /dev/vg01

Thats all.

The commands posted for create are HPUX commands. The question is posted in the Tru64 forum. Manuales has been posting question for both. Which one is it this time?
My guess is hpux.
In either case... RTFM!
Read The Fine (F&*^ing :-) Man pages.
