worked w/o delimiters like
ls /dev/*/group | sed 's/group//' | xargs rm -r ; vgmknodes

Yes, worked with "make distclean".
For the backward compatibilty I will try later.
One more question related with activating PV,
Of course I could make them active after removing the volume and recreating
it.
As you can notice on the attached log VG is ok, How could I make these PVs
active
w/o removing the volume?
Did it corrupt the VGDA? any way to recover it?
(PS: you can notice TWO "volDisk" group in the following "vgdisplay", should
be
volDisk & volDisk2 ???)
Thanks again,
Bo
