Its not looking good for the "-pat *" option.
Code:
SS7400 cli% showvv
--Rsvd(MB)--- -(MB)-
Id Name Prov Type CopyOf BsId Rd -Detailed_State- Adm Snp Usr VSize
1 .srdata full base --- 1 RW normal 0 0 81920 81920
0 admin full base --- 0 RW normal 0 0 10240 10240

SS7400 cli% removevv -dr -pat *
Dry run : removevv -ld admin
Dry run : removevv -ld .srdata
Frustrating... so I cracked the book:
http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/h ... .492883150Page 12 covers glob-style pattern matching... however it does not appear that 3PAR implemented an option to exclude. So this pattern will kill anything that starts with a CAPTIAL A-Z, lowercase b-z, or a number... but will leave behind anything that starts with a or non-alphanumeric. Perhaps a start that you can tweak to meet your goal.
Code:
SS7400 cli% removevv -dr -pat \[A-Zb-z0-9\]*
