NAME
       blkdeactivate -- utility to deactivate block devices
SYNOPSIS
       blkdeactivate     [-d dm_options]     [-e]     [-h]    [-l lvm_options]
       [-m mpath_options]  [-r mdraid_options]  [-o vdo_options]   [-u]   [-v]
       [device]
DESCRIPTION
       The  blkdeactivate utility deactivates block devices. For mounted block
       devices, it attempts to unmount it automatically before trying to deac-
       tivate.  The  utility  currently  supports  device-mapper devices (DM),
       including LVM volumes and software RAID MD  devices.  LVM  volumes  are
       handled  directly  using  the lvm(8) command, the rest of device-mapper
       based devices are handled using the dmsetup(8) command.  MD devices are
       handled using the mdadm(8) command.
OPTIONS
       -d, --dmoptions dm_options
              Comma   separated   list   of  device-mapper  specific  options.
              Accepted dmsetup(8) options are:
              retry  Retry removal several times in case of failure.
              force  Force device removal.
       -e, --errors
              Show errors reported from tools called by blkdeactivate. Without
              this  option,  any  error messages from these external tools are
              suppressed and the blkdeactivate itself provides only a  summary
              message to indicate the device was skipped.
       -h, --help
              Display the help text.
       -l, --lvmoptions lvm_options
              Comma-separated list of LVM specific options:
              retry  Retry removal several times in case of failure.
              wholevg
                     Deactivate  the  whole LVM Volume Group when processing a
                     Logical Volume.  Deactivating the Volume Group as a whole
                     is  quicker  than  deactivating each Logical Volume sepa-
                     rately.
       -m, --mpathoptions mpath_options
              Comma-separated  list  of   device-mapper   multipath   specific
              options:
              disablequeueing
                     Disable  queueing on all multipath devices before deacti-
                     vation.  This avoids a situation where blkdeactivate  may
                     end  up  waiting if all the paths are unavailable for any
                     underlying device-mapper multipath device.
       -r, --mdraidoptions mdraid_options
              Comma-separated list of MD RAID specific options:
              wait   Wait MD device's resync, recovery or  reshape  action  to
                     complete before deactivation.

       -o, --vdooptions vdo_options
              Comma-separated list of VDO specific options:
              configfile=file
                     Use specified VDO configuration file.

       -u, --umount
              Unmount  a mounted device before trying to deactivate it.  With-
              out this option used, a device that is mounted  is  not  deacti-
              vated.
       -v, --verbose
              Run in verbose mode. Use --vv for even more verbose mode.
EXAMPLES
       Deactivate  all  supported  block devices found in the system, skipping
       mounted devices.   # blkdeactivate
       Deactivate all supported block devices found in the system,  unmounting
       any mounted devices first, if possible.   # blkdeactivate -u
       Deactivate  the  device  /dev/vg/lvol0  together  with all its holders,
       unmounting any mounted devices first, if possible.   # blkdeactivate -u
       /dev/vg/lvol0
       Deactivate  all  supported  block  devices  found in the system. If the
       deactivation of a device-mapper device fails, retry it. Deactivate  the
       whole  Volume  Group at once when processing an LVM Logical Volume.   #
       blkdeactivate -u -d retry -l wholevg
       Deactivate all supported block devices found  in  the  system.  If  the
       deactivation  of  a  device-mapper  device  fails,  retry  it and force
       removal.   # blkdeactivate -d force,retry
