I used the following as suggested by Heinz: pvcreate -ff /dev/sda7 It worked, I was able to recover most of my LVs, but three. However, of these two were not important at all and I have a backup for the other one. BTW, I find out why I ran into an error about a missing definition. As Heinz suggested I was actually executing a older copy of the utilities which were copied somewhere else in case of emergency and were before the newest ones in the path. Thanks to all for your help, -- ======================================= Daniel Savard Internet: dsavard@cids.ca ======================================= _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://www.sistina.com/lvm/Pages/howto.html
