When you remove a volume from an application volume group, VxVM clears the application volume group name and the IOPS threshold from the volume. When you remove the only remaining volume in the group, the application volume group is deleted.
You can use the vxvolgrp command to remove volumes to an application volume group.
See the vxvolgrp(1M) manual page.
For example, to remove a volume from the application volume group datavol_grp:
# vxvolgrp -g oradg rmvol datavol_grp datavol3 # vxvolgrp -g oradg list datavol_grp Volume Group: datavol_grp volume(s): datavol1 datavol2 volume group attributes: maxiops=1000
