removing a multipath lun in sles11 is dumb

the current method of removing a lun in sles11 is really dumb and labor intensive. In aix only ONE command is needed to remove a lun.
In sles11 I have to do too much to remove a lun and is very prone to make mistakes on a prod system.

entire procedure should be “rmdev hdisk01” it should go out and remove whatever is needed to remove anything related to this disk, it does this in aix.

Current SLES procedure is https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=7009660
