The problem is still there when the LVM is only on a single SCSI volume. In fact, changing the volume from one drive to the other shows SCSI errors on the new drive and the old drive used on a non LVM file system stops having errors. > What did the file system consistency check I mentioned in my other mail say? When I ran an fsck on the file system with the errors (I did not re-do this experiment recently) it found bad blocks on the files system, but no inconsistencies on the file system itself. ----------------------------------------------------- Protect yourself from spam, use http://sneakemail.com
