Hi all.  I believe this has been discussed before, but 15 minutes of googling
and searching my mail archives didn't reveal the answer; no doubt when
somebody reminds me what it is, I'll get to say D'oh!

I've got a test installation running 1.6b5, and it looks like one of the
drives (containing an OST) is on its way out.  I've migrated all the data off
it (by deactivating it on the mds and using lfs find to identify all the files
that needed to be copied) and now I'm trying to cleanly shut down that OST and
make the rest of the system forget about it, at least for a while.

I tried deactivating the device on the OSS, using lctl --device N deactivate,
but that gripes invalid argument.  If I just dismount it, the MDS/MGS sit
around griping that they're trying to recover it.  I could have sworn there
was a way to get the system to no longer think that OST is a part of it, but I
can't seem to find it now.  Anybody got hints?

Thanks in advance...
