NAME
       vgremove -- remove a volume group

SYNOPSIS
       vgremove	  [--commandprofile   ProfileName]  [-d|--debug]  [-f|--force]
       [-h|-?|--help]	  [--noudevsync]     [--reportformat	 {basic|json}]
       [-S|--select Selection] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] [VolumeGroupName...]

DESCRIPTION
       vgremove	 allows	 you  to  remove one or more volume groups.  If one or
       more physical volumes in the volume group are lost,  consider  vgreduce
       --removemissing to make the volume group metadata consistent again.

       If  there  are logical volumes that exist in the volume group, a prompt
       will be given to confirm removal.  You can override the prompt with -f.

OPTIONS
       See lvm(8) for common options.

       -f, --force
	      Force the removal of any logical volumes	on  the	 volume	 group
	      without  confirmation.   To remove also damaged pool volumes use
	      -ff.

       --noudevsync
	      Disable udev synchronisation. The	 process  will	not  wait  for
	      notification  from  udev.	  It will continue irrespective of any
	      possible udev processing in the background.  You should only use
	      this if udev is not running or has rules that ignore the devices
	      LVM2 creates.
