I've come across a problem with my lvm drive(s). When I try to mount it, I get /dev/diskvg/share does not exist. Running pvscan I get, pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdg1" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdg2" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdg3" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdh1" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdh2" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdh3" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdh4" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hde1" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hde2" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hde3" is associated to unknown VG "diskvg" (run vgscan) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdf1" is in no VG [19.53 GB] pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdf2" is in no VG [18.82 GB] pvscan -- total: 12 [267.09 GB] / in use: 10 [228.74 GB] / in no VG: 2 [38.35 GB] which is correct (other than having an unknown vg), and when I run vgscan I get, vgscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...) vgscan -- only found 33727 of 33556 LEs for LV /dev/diskvg/share (0) vgscan -- ERROR "vg_read_with_pv_and_lv(): allocated LE of LV" can't get data of volume group "diskvg" from physical volume(s) vgscan -- "/etc/lvmtab" and "/etc/lvmtab.d" successfully created vgscan -- WARNING: This program does not do a VGDA backup of your volume group vgcfgrestore -n diskvg -b 1 /dev/hdg1 but running pvdata /dev/hdg1 I still get --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/hdg1 VG Name diskvg PV Size 19.53 GB [40960017 secs] / NOT usable 4.19 MB [LVM: 147 KB] PV# 1 PV Status available Allocatable yes (but full) Cur LV 1 PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 4998 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 4998 PV UUID DKfGe0-VsMw-zeK1-5tJn-f7Nb-Uv6u-j93KLp --- Volume group --- VG Name VG Access read/write VG Status NOT available/resizable VG # 0 MAX LV 256 Cur LV 1 Open LV 0 MAX LV Size 255.99 GB Max PV 256 Cur PV 7 Act PV 7 VG Size 131.75 GB PE Size 4 MB Total PE 33727 Alloc PE / Size 33556 / 131.08 GB Free PE / Size 171 / 684 MB VG UUID t36afg-UyqZ-HqLo-9SHT-TfYe-1yNg-hQxfRv Is there any hope of restoring the data? -- Regards, Chris Better to light one candle than to curse the darkness. -- motto of the Christopher Society ----- Chris Freeze Email: cfreeze@alumni.clemson.edu Web: http://www.cfreeze.com
