All, I have a LVM based data disk with 3 LVs. My OS disks are _not_ LVM based. We had a lightning storm over the weekend, and an old kernel (2.4.18) got booted when the machine was powered back on. I have 2.4.19 running again now. Now I get the following: SuSEbox:~ # pvscan pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...) pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/sda1" is associated to unknown VG "TruStore-Data" (run vgscan) pvscan -- total: 1 [55.91 GB] / in use: 1 [55.91 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0] SuSEbox:~ # vgscan vgscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...) vgscan -- ERROR "lv_read_all_lv(): number of LV" can't get data of volume group "TruStore-Data" 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 SuSEbox:~ # Any ideas on how to restore my LVM config tables (VGDAs ??). I think LVM keeps backups somewhere.
