NAME
       pvremove - remove LVM data structure from a physical volume

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       The  command  clears the LVM data structure on a disk, so that it is no
       longer an LVM physical volume.  The device may then be used by the file
       system or by other volume managers.

       The  operation is denied if pv_path is assigned to a volume group.  The
       command only clears the LVM data structure on a disk if the  disk  does
       not  belong  to	a  volume  group.  This avoids accidentally removing a
       valid physical volume under a volume group.  If the physical volume  to
       be  removed  belongs to a volume group, use the command to first remove
       the volume group associated with the physical volume.

   Arguments
       recognizes the following arguments:

	      pv_path	The character (raw) device path	 name  of  a  physical
			volume.
