How to remove a Unit from a volume group

[To-M]

When joining the Units together (we span the units) and if data is being written to the Unit it would be very hard to extract with the file system that we use and somehow in our LVM move any data from that unit to the original unit. So currently we do not have this feature available and most likely won't any time soon, this function has been like this from early days of our products.

Alright - just an important thing to have in mind.

Thanks for pointing that out for me.

I am using DSS 6

I had a volume V01 which had 1 unit assigned to it LV00

This was formatted as a NFS drive.

By accident I assigned LV01 to V01 but have not assigned the space etc

I used the "Delect Contents of Units" and removed LV01 from V01.. But when DSS restarted there was NO V01 any more.

How can recreate V01 with LV00 without loosing all of the data there.

Many thanks
Dave
