Hello,
I got this name from the kernel maintainers file. I hope someone can help me.
If so, please email me directly.
While writing an LPI level 2 book I stumbled acros 2 issues.
Can you respond on the following info?
I use a redhaf 7.2 system for these test with 6 old scsi disks attached.

vgcfgrestore -- INFO: using backup file "/etc/lvmconf/lpi_vg_1.conf"
vgcfgrestore -- can't restore part of active volume group "lpi_vg_1"
[root@redhat lvmconf]# lvchange -a n /dev/lpi_vg_1/lpi_lv_1

issue 2: Other problem:
Wanting to do an vgexport and import on same system:
[root@redhat root]# vgimport lpi_vg_1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1
vgimport -- ERROR "pv_read(): open" reading physical volume "/dev/sdb1"
your respons will be highly appreciated.
