=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The rmvm command removes the partitions specified in noderange. If noderange is an CEC, all the partitions associated with that CEC will be removed. Note that removed partitions are automatically removed from the xCAT database. For IVM-managed systems, care must be taken to not remove the VIOS partition, or all the associated partitions will be removed as well.
