Thanks! That's worth a shot. I'll have to do some experimenting. SLES 11 never had any issues with it and LVM certainly shouldn't lose its wits until the next reboot, but if we can work around that, at least we can avoid getting it into that state and save a reboot.

I suppose you could try doing a "pvchange -x -n /dev/dasd??" command before doing the dasdfmt on it. If that eliminates the problem, then perhaps over-writing disks when released from a guest needs to be mandatory in your environment.
