This changes the behavior for users who upgrade.
Before, the device would be destroyed if the type was "partition". Now, the device will not be destroyed. Does the device need to be destroyed in the ancestor.type == "partition" and not use_partitions case? Should the user be provided with an option to do that? For example, add a new parameter storage_destroy_partition_device: true - true by default which means do self._blivet.devicetree.recursive_remove(ancestor, remove_device=False) and self._blivet.destroy_device(ancestor) - if false, then skip the destroy_device

Blivet Python API destroy_device recursive_remove remove_device behavior
💡 Result:
In the current Blivet documentation (3.14.2), `recursive_remove` is the low-level device-tree operation; `destroy_device` is the higher-level `Blivet` helper.
- **`b.destroy_device(device)`** schedules destruction of the device’s format and device; changes are committed only when actions are run with `b.do_it()`. ([storaged.org](https://storaged.org/blivet/docs/intro.html))
- **`recursive_remove(device, actions=True, remove_device=True, modparent=True)`** removes dependent devices first, recursively, then handles the requested device. `actions` controls whether removal actions are scheduled; `remove_device` controls whether the root itself is removed; `modparent` controls parent updates. Disks are an exception: their formatting can be removed, but the disk device itself is retained. ([storaged.org](https://storaged.org/blivet/docs/blivet/blivet.html))
- **`remove_device`** is a *parameter* of `recursive_remove`, not a separate API method in the current docs. Setting it to `False` leaves the root device in place while still allowing recursive removal of its dependents. That last behavior follows from the parameter description plus the documented recursive behavior. ([storaged.org](https://storaged.org/blivet/docs/blivet/blivet.html))
The exact effects of `actions=False` and `modparent=False` beyond their documented descriptions aren’t specified there; check the implementation for your installed Blivet version before relying on those details.

Preserve supplied partitions when removing an LVM pool.
When storage_use_partitions=true, an existing partition reaches self._blivet.destroy_device(ancestor). Blivet schedules destruction of the device itself. This deletes the partition, which violates the README contract. Preserve only partitions listed in self._disks; partitions created from whole-disk inputs must remain removable.

Preserve former user-supplied partitions when removing VG members.
When storage_use_partitions=true, removing a previously explicit partition from disks reaches self._blivet.devicetree.recursive_remove(pv.raw_device) without remove_device=False. This deletes the partition, but the documented contract requires the partition and partition table to remain.
Do not test pv.raw_device in self._disks; remove_pvs selects members that are no longer represented by the current disk list. Record partition provenance when the member is created, retain it across later management calls, and use it to preserve former explicit partitions while still removing partitions created for whole-disk members.

Assert that removing the member clears its PV signature.
The role documents that removing a user-specified partition wipes its PV while preserving the partition. This test checks only that partition 2 remains. The shared verifier filters PVs by VG assignment, so it can pass if detached __part2 retains an orphan PV signature. Add a blkid check and an assert for __part2, as required for post-role state checks.

Wipe partition signatures before removing the partition table.
The safe-mode scenario leaves an ext4 signature on __part1. wipefs --all --force {{ __disk }} removes the disk’s partition table, not signatures inside its partitions. A later test that recreates the partition can encounter that old signature. Wipe the existing partition first, then wipe the disk.

Until now pool "disks" had to be whole disks. Allow an existing partition (e.g. sdb1 or /dev/disk/by-partlabel/data) to be listed as a member of an LVM pool and use it as a physical volume as it is. The role never creates, resizes or deletes such a partition: - when a member partition has existing data it is wiped (refused in storage_safe_mode) and formatted as a PV, but the partition stays - when the pool or the member is removed, the partition is wiped but kept, as is the partition table - extended partitions are rejected with a clear error - a partition scheduled for creation in the same run (partition volume with fs_type lvmpv) that already has the right format is used as is - storage_use_partitions does not apply to members that are already partitions Add tests covering an existing partition as PV (create, idempotence, removal) and creating the partition and VG in a single role call, generated for scsi and nvme disks. Teach test-verify-pool-members.yml to expect partition PVs, and document the behaviour in the README. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

… is true When a partition is removed from an LVM pool with storage_destroy_partition_device: false, only the preservation branch for partitions that are not created by the role honoured the setting: it required storage_use_partitions to be false. With storage_use_partitions: true a partition listed explicitly in disks fell through to recursive_remove and was deleted, together with the disklabel if it was the last partition. The README says that storage_use_partitions does not apply to members that are already partitions. Handle every partition member that has to be kept in the preservation branch: wipe it, keep the partition and the disklabel. With the default storage_destroy_partition_device: true nothing changes.

BlivetPool._destroy only preserved a partition when it was found in the disks of the pool as given in the playbook. For a request that only has the name of the pool and state: absent, the disks are filled in from the existing pool and then contain only whole disks, never the partitions. The partition therefore took the destruction branch and, as it was the last child of the disk, the disklabel was wiped as well, although storage_destroy_partition_device was false. Preserve every partition below the pool when storage_destroy_partition_device is false: the contents are wiped, the partition and the partition table are kept. With the default (true) the partitions are destroyed as before; they are now wiped first, which adds one destroy format action to the list of actions.
