Ok, assuming the block/sector stuff is correct: --- Physical extents --- PE LV LE Disk sector 00000 /dev/site/lvol1 00000 33144 00001 /dev/site/lvol1 00001 65912 badblocks(2) is not picking up those blocks as being bad; this means I need to manually remove the first LE from this LV. I assume I can do something similar to `pvmove -n /dev/site/lvol1:0 /dev/hdf1 /dev/hdb1` (hdf1 is the one causing problems, but I can't simply remove the PV from the VG w/out deleting lots of stuff). However, how do I lvreduce from the beginning of the LV? Is that possible?
