Current situation is that I have a bad disk /dev/sdb1 in an existing lvm partition. (sda1/sda4/sdb1) I would like to remove it from the VG. (There are no free PE anywhere. I've maxed it out.) I've already reduced the existing VG to the size of sda1+sda4 partition. I would like to remove entirely the Physical Extents from the volume group. It doesn't seem like there's a way to do this w/o putting another disk inside? I'm sure that's not true. Doing a $vgreduce storage /dev/sdb1 Physical volume "/dev/sdb1" still in use I have no idea what/who is using it. fuser/lsof etc doesn't show up anything. I actually don't much care about the data, I've already copied it somewhere else. So, instead of just blowing up everything, I rather take this as a learning experience. -- Ow Mun Heng <Ow.Mun.Heng@wdc.com> _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
