CentOS - Jun 2014 - How to remove LVM Physical Volume from Volume Group?

Hi. I have a volume group (let's say) vg_data.
It consists from /dev/sdd5
                       sdd6
                       sdd7
I added               sdc5

Now I want to remove (free) sdd7 and you is to for RAID partition.

What are the commands (ordered) I need to perform? I failed to find 
clear howto.


vg-data has only one partition, total size is over 1TB, free space is 
about 500GB so there is a plenty or room.

To be original seek your inspiration from unexpected sources.

Fidsk -l (you will see sdd5, sdd6 and sdd7)
Pvdisplay (to make sure the Allocated PE on /dev/sdd7
Vgreduce vg_data /dev/sdd7
Pvremove /dev/sdd7

(before you run vgreduce you need to move all data from sdd7 to new dic

This e-mail triggers the Thunderbird bug, previously discussed,for me.  
The error message is:
Bad key or directory name:
"/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/GMT+03/command":
`+' is an invalid character in key/directory names

and appears to be triggered by the + in the timezone.
