How to remove a disk/LUN permanently from VERITAS control ?

I just executed vxinstall command in 11.23 IA64, and all my LUNs came under VxVM/VERITAS control.

"vxdisk list" shows all my LUNs in the enclosure based naming format.

I want to remove few LUNs from VERITAS control permanently.

Please anyone tell me how can i do this ?

to permanently keep those LUN far from vxvm
just put cxtydz names (1 by line) in /etc/vx/disks.exclude
to remove them now from vxvm use vxdisk rm cxtydz
