How to remove a shared locked Virtual disk

I created a virtual disk in OVM as shared. Applied that virtual disk to 2 OL6 VM.  The two OL6 VM servers running OCFS2. I setup the virtual disk using theses commands "mkfs.ocfs2 -b 4k -C 32k -N 2 -L ppkdisk /dev/xvdb"  This work out great. I'm able to mount the virtual disk
on each VM since I'm using OCFS2. I "umount" that shared vurtual disk each machine. I want to remove the virtual disk. When I try to remove the virtual disk from within OVM, it says "Cannot remove virtual device, it's still in use". The virtual disk is not mounted on either VM server. Trying to figure out what has a lock on it. Thanks.

Howdy, Stranger!
