How to rmdev a list of hdisk in one shot in AIX

Question

In AIX I have a long list (more then 30) of hdisks I need to delete them in one shot, what command can I use?

Answer 1

Generic answer for any command on any Unix-like OS:

while read -r item; do
    rmdev "$item"
done < itemlist.txt

Or:

xargs -d'\n' -n1 rmdev < itemlist.txt

Answer 2

for hdisk in $(cat hdisk.txt);
do;
   rmdev -Rl $hdisk;
done
