    Awhile back I had setup a test volume group for our DBA, and I'm now
    having problems removing it. We had a server crash a short time ago when
    my boss made a change on the SAN which knocked offline all the logical
    drives assigned to the db server, so I'm guessing my current problems are
    related to that.

    Anyway, here's what I get when I try to remove the volume group so that I
    can remove the hdisk:

    root@aixdb2-2:/db2/test# reducevg -df db2logsvg hdisk10
    0516-062 lqueryvg: Unable to read or write logical volume manager
             record. PV may be permanently corrupted. Run diagnostics
    0516-882 reducevg: Unable to reduce volume group.

    Is there no way to force the deletion of a volume group?

    Thanks,
    Mike
