17 Control arguments:
18 -manual_free
19    specifies that if deleting is done, volumes are not freed from the
20    volume pool automatically; manual freeing is required.  This means
21    that dump volumes are deleted from the respective volume logs but
22    are not reused until they are marked as free in the volume pool.
23    The default is to automatically free volumes in the volume pool.

26 Notes:  This command should only be used to delete volume log segments
27 of physical volumes for which neither retrieval nor reloading is
28 intended in the future.
