Hi List,

slightly OT but i have Xen and Windows running (xen 3.2.0, hvm, win
2k3) on top of a  lvm volume. Now i want to delete such a volume but i
got the message:
$ lvremove /dev/Xen0/Win2kServer
  Can't remove open logical volume "Win2kServer"

The volume is not in use by any VM, but there is a partition table on
it with 8Megs of free space and a ntfs partition. I also got 2
devnodes i /dev/mapper :
brw-r-----  1 root disk 254, 52 Mar 27 14:03 Xen0-Win2kServer
brw-r-----  1 root disk 254, 53 Mar 27 14:03 Xen0-Win2kServer1

So how can i remove such a lvm volume?

regards Martin
