Full Discussion: Logical volume name conflict in two volume group
Operating Systems AIX Logical volume name conflict in two volume group Post 302377823 by dantares on Saturday 5th of December 2009 10:57:26 AM

I wanted to use the command synclvodm to rename the logical volume lvnode01 in default in the volume group datavg.

So I could remove the default logical volume in volume group datavg without stopping applications. In fact I am forced to stop applications when using a importvg / exportvg.

vgremove

VGREMOVE(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       VGREMOVE(8)

NAME

       vgremove - remove a volume group

SYNOPSIS

       vgremove [-d|--debug] [-f|--force] [-h|-?|--help] [--noudevsync] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] VolumeGroupName [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 for common options.

       -f, --force
	      Force the removal of any logical volumes on the volume group without confirmation.

       --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  cre-
	      ates.
