Syntax for pvremove, lvremove and vgremove

[senthil_kumar_2]

Hi All,

I would like to know the exact syntax with examples for pvremove, lvremove and vgremove

[Patrick Wallek]

Have a look at the man pages. They usually offer examples.

# man pvremove

# man lvremove

# man vgremove

As said above man is the best place to search for examples.

Some Examples:
Remove a logical volume without requiring user confirmation:

lvremove -f /dev/vg01/lvol5

Remove volume group /dev/vg02 from the system:

vgremove /dev/vg02

Remove a Physical volume

pvremove /dev/rdsk/c6t3d0
