KVM - Cant remote LVM storage pool with virt-manager - mounted partitions

Hi there,

So I have virt manager installed on my PC, and I use it to manage a remote server with KVM.

On the server, I have LVM set up on a 250GB HDD, with say 50GB taken up by Root and Swap, the volume group is called vm-vgroup

I added the lvm group to the storage pool, so it now shows my Root and Swap partitions in there, and the free space available to use. I tried to remove this as I wanted to set up just one partition to use for .img files but it wont let me because root and swap are active partitions. Questions are:

Is there anything I can do to remove this from the pool list?

Is this a problem set up this way?

Thanks in advance for your help.
