Logical volumes cannot be deactivated -or removed while they are open (e.g. if they contain a mounted filesystem). -Removing an origin logical volume will also remove all dependent snapshots. -.sp -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 command -issued from one node can do this. -.sp -If the configuration setting \fBmetadata/record_lvs_history\fP is enabled -and the logical volume being removed forms part of the history of at least -one logical volume that is still present then a simplified representation of -the logical volume will be retained. This includes the time of removal -(\fBlv_time_removed\fP reporting field), creation time (\fBlv_time\fP), name -(\fBlv_name\fP), LV uuid (\fBlv_uuid\fP) and VG name (\fBvg_name\fP) and -allows you to see the ancestry chain of thin snapshot volumes even after -some intermediate logical volumes have been removed. -The names of such historical logical volumes acquire a hyphen as a prefix -(e.g. '-lvol1') and cannot be reactivated. Use lvremove a second time, -with the hyphen, to remove the record of the former logical volume completely. -.SH OPTIONS -See \fBlvm\fP(8) for common options. -.TP -.BR \-f ", " \-\-force -Remove active logical volumes without confirmation. -Tool will try to deactivate \fIunused\fP volume. -To proceed with damaged pools use \-ff -.TP -.B \-\-nohistory -Disable the recording of history of logical volumes which are being removed. -(This has no effect unless the configuration setting -\fBmetadata/record_lvs_history\fP is enabled.) -.TP -.B \-\-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.
