NAME

       vgremove — remove a volume group

SYNOPSIS

       vgremove   [--commandprofile   ProfileName]   [-d|--debug]   [-f|--force]   [-h|-?|--help]
       [--noudevsync] [-S|--select Selection] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] [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(8) for common options.

       -f, --force
              Force  the removal of any logical volumes on the volume group without confirmation.
              To remove also damaged pool volumes use -ff.

       --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 creates.
