Removing the last disk of LSM

Hi,

We have a AlphaServer 800 with Tru64 5.1A. It was reformatted (new drives)
and the OS was re-installed by someone before me and 3 of the 4 drives (10
GB SCSI internal) were manage by LSM, which we don't want to use. I was
able to remove the two first disks from the group, but not the last one.

I also tried to deport group but it seems that I cannot deport the root
group.

So, how can I get dsk3 out of LSM or disable LSM so that the OS manage the
drive like a normal one ?

Thanks.
