[PLUG] LVM - Open # value

["Neill R" <nrdevelopment@gmail.com>]

Hey Guys, I have an issue where I can not remove a logical volume, it
is unmounted. Running Red hat EL box.

The #open value is suspicious to me, but I dont see anything when doing a lsof.



[root@host1~]# lvdisplay /dev/vg_oracle/lv_u11
  --- Logical volume ---
  LV Name                /dev/vg_oracle/lv_u11
  VG Name                vg_oracle
  LV UUID                7K321a-M5fw-BmLS-9r6H-ssur-Yzfb-bh221T
  LV Write Access        read/write

  Allocation             inherit

[root@host1~]# lvremove -v /dev/vg_oracle/lv_u11
    Using logical volume(s) on command line
  Can't remove open logical volume "lv_u11"


Thanks in advance!
