LVREMOVE(8)LVREMOVE(8)NAMElvremove - remove a logical volume
SYNOPSISlvremove [-A/--autobackup y/n] [-d/--debug] [-f/--force] [-h/-?/--help]
[-t/--test] [-v/--verbose] LogicalVolumePath [LogicalVolumePath...]
DESCRIPTIONlvremove removes one or more logical volumes. Confirmation will be
requested before deactivating any active logical volume prior to
removal. Logical volumes cannot be deactivated or removed while they
are open (e.g. if they contain a mounted filesystem).
If the logical volume is clustered then it must be deactivated on all
nodes in the cluster before it can be removed. A single lvchange com‐
mand issued from one node can do this.
OPTIONS
See lvm(8) for common options.
-f, --force
Remove active logical volumes without confirmation.
EXAMPLES
Remove the active logical volume lvol1 in volume group vg00 without
asking for confirmation:
lvremove-f vg00/lvol1
Remove all logical volumes in volume group vg00:
lvremove vg00
