14 vgremove allows you to remove one or more volume groups. If one or
15 more physical volumes in the volume group are lost, consider vgreduce
16 --removemissing to make the volume group metadata consistent again.
17
18 If there are logical volumes that exist in the volume group, a prompt
19 will be given to confirm removal. You can override the prompt with -f.
20
22 See lvm(8) for common options.
23
24 -f, --force
25 Force the removal of any logical volumes on the volume group
26 without confirmation. To remove also damaged pool volumes use
27 -ff.
28
29 --noudevsync
30 Disable udev synchronisation. The process will not wait for
31 notification from udev. It will continue irrespective of any
32 possible udev processing in the background. You should only use
33 this if udev is not running or has rules that ignore the devices
34 LVM2 creates.
