Sorry ,I have not given enough information. I found that an iscsi lun which is connected to this appliance.
I notice that there is an entry in the /etc/lvm/cahe/.cache file about this disk in the appliance.
Look like this disk is in the lvm group.
I do not know much about linux.
Is there anyway i can remove this disk from a group ?
the device is /dev/sad

check in #pvs.
if device is being used in any PV.. remove it first and if not then you can try removing .cache file

i did not try this, but disconnected all nic cables
mkdir /mnt/newdisk
Then mount it:
mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/newdisk
If no sdd1 is present that means there is no partitions on the disk. In that case you need to use fdisk to create partitions.
Is this a new drive, or an old drive with data? Do not use fdisk if the drive has data on it already.
Run the following command:
ls /dev/sdd*
