[linux-lvm] Removing vg and lv after physical drive has been removed

[Rene C.]

Sorry about that. The unique errors are the same I posted in the first post:

# (pvs -o +pv_uuid,lv_name >/dev/null) 2>&1 | sort -u
  /dev/vg04/swap: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error
  /dev/vg04/swap: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 4096: Input/output error
  /dev/vg04/swap: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 4294901760: Input/output error
  /dev/vg04/swap: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 4294959104: Input/output error
  /dev/vg04/vz: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error
  /dev/vg04/vz: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 4096: Input/output error
  /dev/vg04/vz: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 995903864832: Input/output error
  /dev/vg04/vz: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 995903922176: Input/output error

vg04 was indeed entirely on the missing disk.

would 'dmsetup remove vg04-swap' and 'dmsetup remove vg04-vz' not remove these?
