The lvmraid(7) manual does not cover how to remove PVs from existing
LVs and VGs and the lvconvert(8) manual for the -m/--mirrors does not
mention that the optional PV argument when reducing the number of
mirror images is the device to remove, instead it says the PV arguments
are "the devices the images should be placed on", which is true when
adding images but *not* when removing them, making the documentation of
this option very misleading.

This documentation problem caused a delay in my drive migration;
I had to do a second sync on the new drive in my RAID1 lvmraid today
before I could remove the old drive to complete the migration.

The documentation from RedHat covers this quite well and is very clear
and not misleading, it would be nice if RedHat could be convinced to
contribute this to lvm2 upstream.
