I had this same problem a couple of weeks ago. I solved it by patching the VGDA on the new disk, renumbering the PV to get the number of the PV I had removed and then everything was ok again. It seems like you'll need to renumber /dev/hdf1 to be PV#2 from being PV#4. Check with pvdata that the PVs are indeed numbered as above, make a copy of the first few sectors of /dev/hdf1 and then try the following: printf "\0002" | dd of=/dev/hdf1 bs=1 count=1 seek=432 conv=notrunc -- Christian Limpach <chris@Pin.LU> _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://www.sistina.com/lvm/Pages/howto.html
