I do not care about the > data. No LV status flags have been changed at all in 1.1-rc. lv_check_consistency() checks for the 2 possible user land states in lv_status which are either 0 or LV_ACTIVE. For fast progress it should be ok to remove the lv_status checks from lv_check_consistency(). For further investigation of a possible 1.1-rc flaw ITR, could you send me (mge@sistina.com) the output files created with for d in All_volRaid0_PVs do dd if=/dev/YOurPV of=`basename $d`.vgda bs=1k count=4 done packed into a compressed tar archive?
