Hi Admin, I had a test LVM volume that I used to get familiar with the concepts. I am now ready to create the volumes proper and so re- created the RAID containers from scratch. I didn't destroy the old volumes and now I am getting lots of errors when I do {pv,vg,lv}display. Is there some way I can remove all the old configuration? I have tried {lv,pv,vg}remove and I keep getting these type of errors: Couldn't find device with uuid 'wL5A4h-HlSu-Pabf-DulI-is2f-R8br- ZjhjMV'. Couldn't find all physical volumes for volume group Archive. Couldn't find device with uuid 'wL5A4h-HlSu-Pabf-DulI-is2f-R8br- ZjhjMV'. Couldn't find all physical volumes for volume group Archive. Volume group "Archive" not found Contents of /etc/lvm: ./.cache ./archive ./archive/Archive_00000.vg ./backup ./backup/Archive ./lvm.conf Can anyone offer some advice?
