SYNOPSIS

lvremove [−A|−−autobackup {y|n}] [−d|−−debug] [−f|−−force] [−h|−−help] [−v|−−verbose] LogicalVolumePath [LogicalVolumePath...]

DESCRIPTION

lvremove allows you to remove one or more inactive logical volumes.

OPTIONS
−A, −−autobackup y/n

Controls automatic backup of VG metadata after the change ( see vgcfgbackup(8) ). Default is yes.

−d, −−debug

Enables additional debugging output (if compiled with DEBUG).

−f, −−force

Force remove without confirmation.

-h, −−help

Print a usage message on standard output and exit successfully.

−v, −−verbose

Gives verbose runtime information about lvremove’s activities.

Example

"lvremove -f /dev/vg00/lvol1" removes that inactive logical volume unconditionally.

DIAGNOSTICS

lvremove returns an exit code of 0 for success and > 0 for error:

1 no logical volume name on command line
2 invalid logical volume name
3 error checking existence of volume group
4 inactive volume group
5 error getting VGDA from kernel
6 error getting status of logical volume from kernel
7 open logical volume cannot be removed
8 error reading VGDA
9 error removing logical volume from VGDA
10 error removing logical volume from kernel
11 error writing VGDA to physical volume(s)

95 driver/module not in kernel
96 invalid I/O protocol version
97 error locking logical volume manager
98 invalid lvmtab (run vgscan(8))
99 invalid command line

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

LVM_AUTOBACKUP

If this variable is set to "no" then the automatic backup of VG metadata is turned off.

LVM_VG_MAX_BACKUPS

This variable determines the backup history depth of kept VGDA copy files in /etc/lvmconf. It can be set to a positive number between 0 and 999. The higher this number is, the more changes you can restore using vgcfgrestore(8).

LVM_VG_NAME

The default Volume Group Name to use. Setting this variable enables you to enter just the Logical Volume Name rather than its complete path.
