Full Discussion: Unable to rmlvcopy on jfs2log rootvg
Operating Systems AIX Unable to rmlvcopy on jfs2log rootvg Post 302990813 by rbatte1 on Wednesday 1st of February 2017 08:14:43 AM

The problem you may have is that the logical volumes in the volume group will probably be using it as their log volume. I'm not sure how it's still running if the disk blocks for the log volume are inaccessible.

Do you get an error from commands like these:-
Code:
syncvg -v rootvg
rmlvcopy loglv00 1 hdisk1
rmlvcopy loglv00 1 hdisk4
migratepv -l loglv00 hdisk1 hdisk4

It would be good to see the output previously requested too.



Thanks, in advance,
Robin

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.
