that is a little quirk/bug...I think it might only be with raw logical
volumes, we ran into it a while back (that version sounds maybe about right)
Oh, just checked, I've still got one of these volumes and still can't get
rid of it at 3.7.2.0
yet another reason NOT to use raw logical volumes (haven't ever had this
with jfs files)
Storage Management Server for AIX-RS/6000 - Version 3, Release 7, Level 2.0
I'll work on this and if I can scratch the volume I'll pass on the info
tsm: XXXXXXXX>q vol /dev/rtdcdsm121*
Volume Name Storage Device Estimated Pct Volume
Pool Name Class Name Capacity Util Status
(MB)
------------------------ ----------- ---------- --------- -----
--------
/dev/rtdcdsm121lvb DISKPOOL1 DISK 0.0 0.0
Off-Line
tsm: XXXXXXXX>del vol /dev/rtdcdsm121lvb
ANR2220W This command will delete volume /dev/rtdcdsm121lvb from its storage
pool after verifying that the volume contains no data.
Do you wish to proceed? (Yes/No) y
ANS8001I Return code 13.
tsm: XXXXXXXX>del vol /dev/rtdcdsm121lvb discard=yes
ANR2221W This command will result in the deletion of all inventory
references
to the data on volume /dev/rtdcdsm121lvb, thereby rendering the data
unrecoverable.
Do you wish to proceed? (Yes/No) y
ANS8001I Return code 13.
