Re: remove missing disk with ID only

Need more info as stated.

It could almost be worth; undoing your new mirror config and putting the
bad drive back in and removing it correctly.

ODM issues can be dangerous.

Could you expand on this a little?
Do you mean that the failed disk still shows up in the volume group
(lsvg
-p) or that it's not in the volume group but still appears to have a
VGID?
What sort of disk is it? Is/was it part of an array or just a normal
disk,
with mirroring controlled by LVM?

I had a mirror disk replaced and I can not get the old ID
on the bad disk 'reduced' from the volume group.

Whats the best way to clean this up?
