The date on the directory, as well as /etc/lvm/cache/.cache match up to when LVM was last updated. On the other hand, I may be wrong about a file being updated. It looks like there may be a bit set on the LV itself. (I am going to have to refresh my memory.) After further reading, the OP could have run the command without remounting / rw. He could have run: vgchange -ay --ignorelockingfailure VolTerabytes00 In any case, it would be interesting to have the OP reboot, and see if the VG is active on reboot.
