    unformtunately the rmdev -dl hdiskpower0 device (not used anymore in any VG) hanged forever.... after several hours I closed the terminal and I can seen in the system the two process hanged in the system:

        root  5345354        1   0 13:34:45      -  0:00 /etc/methods/ucfgpowerdisk -l hdiskpower0
        root  9354354        1   0 13:34:45      -  0:00 rmdev -dl hdiskpower0

     

    any idea how to stop/kill it to repeat the process? only reboot can fix this weird issue?

    Encounterd this also, did not find a way other than reboot to cure it. 

    With PowerPath 5.3.1.1 did not see the problem any more (AIX: 7100-01-04-1216 and 7100-03-01-1341).
