Hi, guys I have the same issues on my pve02. I had an empty lune, so I tried to delete it.
History of my commands that i used.
1. Deleted from data center storage.
2. vgremove vg_lun016
3. pvremove /dev/mapper/lun016
4. vgremove vg_lun016
5. multipath -f lun016
6. Deleted from /etc/multipath
multipath {
wwid xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
alias lun016
} this one
7. multipathd reconfigure

after this my promox gui started getting status unknown, generally I can check the vm's ram and etc, however storages not showing the metrics. Also, it shows this after using this command "multipath -ll":
mpathe (362c97b11007d81ef26ff4e270000000f) dm-27 HUAWEI,XSG1
size=10T features='1 queue_if_no_path' hwhandler='0' wp=rw
`-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=0 status=enabled
|- 6:0:0:5 sdf 8:80 failed faulty running
`- 15:0:0:5 sdk 8:160 failed faulty running

I realized that the vgs is issue. But how is it possible to kill the D process.

I have to mention, it is my second server. I had the same issue with pve03, there I deleted
echo 1 > /sys/block/sdi/device/delete
echo 1 > /sys/block/sdn/device/delete
however it didn't work, so I rebooted the server and it solved it.
Could you help me?
