The disks are back in their original machine currently.
pvdata gives me:
--- Physical volume ---

--- List of logical volumes ---
pvdata -- logical volume "/dev/vg01/home" at offset 0
pvdata -- logical volume "/dev/vg01/usr" at offset 1
[...]
"VG Name" in "--- Volume group ---" is empty. Is this normal? In case
this or some other errors within the data structures within one or
more partitions is the cause of my problems:
My setup is currently working obviosly. Is there a way to write this
working configuration into every LVM partition's metadata overwriting
some possible errors there?
Regards
Florian
