Removing Devices From Vxvm; Devices To Be Removed From Vxvm - Hitachi XP P9500 User Manual

Removing Devices from VxVM

VxVM uses HDLM devices to access LUs managed by HDLM. Therefore, you
must remove non-HDLM devices (such as sd or ssd devices), which
correspond to the LU, from VxVM management.
In this section, excluding devices from VxVM management is called removing
devices.
The following describes devices that must be removed from VxVM, and the
procedure for removing such devices.
