          You can either use pvremove or its better to use vgreduce , with UUID or if it doesnt work then use vgreduce --all to clean up things and add again what you want to be in VG.

          • vgreduce with -f option wont work, because this unknown device is already in LVS list. system asked me to do the cleanup from lv level first.
