The boot drive in my dual-drive system was dying, so I pvmoved all its PEs to the other drive and vgreduced it from its VG (rootvg). During a reboot after completing the vgreduce, the boot drive died. However, when I connected the remaining (good) drive to another system, vgscan reported a duplicate volume group ID (as I recall), and made a VG on the new machine (vg00) inaccessible. rootvg was fine, and I was able to mount LVs from it, though. To get back vg00, I vgexported rootvg. However, now when I try to import it again, vgimport fails with "wrong number of physical volumes". How can I fix this? Is it possible to edit the definition of rootvg and reduce the PV count? I'm reasonably sure that all the PEs are intact on the remaining drive, and the VG definition is the only thing that's off. Thanks.
