Removing ghost PVIDs from VGDA

[unixfreak]

Spent all yesterday Googling this but can't find anything or remember how to...

Couple of dead disks got removed and I can't do any LVM operations because it still thinks they should be there. They're not in the ODM, only on the VGDA. I tried adding them to the ODM and I've synclvodm'd but nothing helps.

Thanks

I've had this problem. What I did is to add the disk to the ODM, and then reducevg and rmdev, and it did the trick.

Thanks, add to ODM, migratepv and then reducevg -d using pvid worked
