[SOLVED] Cannot delete LVM Volume group

[bberny]

Helllo,
I accidentally made a volume group named halo as seen on image, but cannot get rid of it, I want to free /dev/sdd from it
I have tried pvesm remove halo with result of
delete storage failed: error during cfs-locked 'file-storage_cfg' operation: storage 'halo' does not exist
before that I tried lvremove halo and it outputs nothing and even -d or -v don't do anything
When I try to create new volume group I cannot, because the web UI says there are no disks unused.

That screen shows the Volume Group. But you need to work your way up to it in order for you to remove it.

Warning! You will lose anything in the specified Logical Volumes, Volume Groups, Physical Volumes if you follow this information. Be sure to back up anything you want to keep.

1. run

   lvdisplay

   1. Check to see if you have nay volume's still in that group
2. If you do run

   lvremove (nameofvolume)

   - This will remove that volume
3. Now run

   vgdisplay

   1. Check to make sure your volume you want to remove is there
4. Now run

   vgremove (nameofvolumegroup)

5. Refresh the page, if it still not there you may need to run

   pvdisplay

   1. Check to see if your Physical Volume is there
6. Then run

   pvremove /dev/sdxxxxx

   1. There can't be any active Volume Groups
