First you'll need this recent fix:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=lvm2.git;a=commitdiff;h=f611b68f3c02b9af2521d7ea61061af3709fe87c
--force was broken at some point, and the option is now --lockopt force.
To change between lock types, you are supposed to be able to change to a
local VG, then from local to the other lock type. The man page sections:
changing a lockd VG to a local VG
changing a local VG to a lockd VG
But it looks like a fix is needed in those instructions. I believe
"vgchange --lock-type none <vgname>" needs to include --lockopt force.
If you could verify this for me, I'll update the man page.
Thanks
Dave
