Just to add, that I would probably do it this way:
to prevent sync'ing.
Then you can sync LPs in parallel:

I want to increase the size of /tmp by 1GB
I know that the command is
chfs -a size=+1G /tmp
But the rootvg is mirrored and when I do a lsvg -p rootvg, I could see 2 disks.
Will there be any impact if I increase the size of /tmp when the rootvg is mirrored ?
Please advise. (1 Reply)

pvremove
pvremove(1M)pvremove(1M)NAME
pvremove - remove LVM data structure from a physical volume
SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION
The command clears the LVM data structure on a disk, so that it is no longer an LVM physical volume. The device may then be used by the
file system or by other volume managers.
The operation is denied if pv_path is assigned to a volume group. The command only clears the LVM data structure on a disk if the disk
does not belong to a volume group. This avoids accidentally removing a valid physical volume under a volume group. If the physical volume
to be removed belongs to a volume group, use the command to first remove the volume group associated with the physical volume.
Arguments
recognizes the following arguments:
pv_path The character (raw) device path name of a physical volume.

Environment Variables
