Hi,
A HD in my lvm2 array got flakey and I wanted to be on the safe side
and move its contents with pvmove.
During that operation the HD died completely, even a reboot didn't
revive it anymore. Now I tried to remove the vg and lv to be able to
set it up again (its for backup purposes, therefore the contents are
reproducible). I got the results:
root@elefant:/# pvmove --abort
Couldn't find device with uuid TLYwDv-aNDB-TM6g-oLTf-pjdj-TN4E-Yr8KHQ.
Couldn't find device with uuid CP2BAI-oZCw-woFK-MfLN-jAFD-66mj-aCLz3S.
Cannot change VG vg_new while PVs are missing.
Consider vgreduce --removemissing.
root@elefant:/# vgreduce --removemissing --force vg_new
Couldn't find device with uuid TLYwDv-aNDB-TM6g-oLTf-pjdj-TN4E-Yr8KHQ.

Removing partial LV lv_new.

WARNING: 2 physical volumes are currently missing from the system.
Do you really want to remove volume group "vg_new" containing 1 logical
volumes? [y/n]: y

Your help is appreciated very much,
