Do a reducevg by the PVID vs. the hdisk name. Use the PVID the system
thinks it has in the VGDA.
I.e.;
reducevg hekvg 0057871a14afe020

Subject: Can not reduce a volume group
All,
I am trying to reduce a volume group by one hdisk. The problem
is
the hdisk has a different (physical volume id number) then what's in
the
odm database. How can I correct the problem?
Copied for the server:
