vgremove(8)

NAME

   vgremove --- remove a volume group

SYNOPSIS

   vgremove   [--commandprofile   ProfileName]  [-d|--debug]  [-f|--force]
   [-h|-?|--help]     [--noudevsync]     [--reportformat     {basic|json}]
   [-S|--select Selection] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] [VolumeGroupName...]

DESCRIPTION

   vgremove  allows  you  to  remove one or more volume groups.  If one or
   more physical volumes in the volume group are lost,  consider  vgreduce
   --removemissing to make the volume group metadata consistent again.

   If  there  are logical volumes that exist in the volume group, a prompt
   will be given to confirm removal.  You can override the prompt with -f.

OPTIONS

   See lvm(8) for common options.

   -f, --force
          Force the removal of any logical volumes  on  the  volume  group
          without  confirmation.   To remove also damaged pool volumes use
          -ff.

   --noudevsync
          Disable udev synchronisation. The  process  will  not  wait  for
          notification  from  udev.   It will continue irrespective of any
          possible udev processing in the background.  You should only use
          this if udev is not running or has rules that ignore the devices
          LVM2 creates.
