Using LVM 1.0.3 on redhat 7.3 (2.4.18-3 kernel). When I run "mkfs.ext3 /dev/homevg/templv homevg" I get the following: mke2fs 1.27 (8-Mar-2002) mkfs.ext3: bad blocks count - homevg The VG and LV are there: --- Volume group --- VG Name homevg VG Access read/write VG Status available/resizable VG # 0 MAX LV 256 Cur LV 1 Open LV 0 MAX LV Size 255.99 GB Max PV 256 Cur PV 1 Act PV 1 VG Size 477.68 GB PE Size 4 MB Total PE 122285 Alloc PE / Size 1000 / 3.91 GB Free PE / Size 121285 / 473.77 GB VG UUID B5NdPc-D3oa-sgTO-Avfe-kXmh-LTGN-gT85FW --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/homevg/templv VG Name homevg LV Write Access read/write LV Status available LV # 1 # open 0 LV Size 3.91 GB Current LE 1000 Allocated LE 1000 Allocation next free Read ahead sectors 1024 Block device 58:0 --- Physical volumes --- PV Name (#) /dev/sdb (1) PV Status available / allocatable Total PE / Free PE 122285 / 121285 So, what I did was, I removed the LV and VG, then rebuilt it, and then I was able to make the filesystem once again. So my question is, does LVM work? Or do you have to blow away a VG in order to fix those bugs? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong.
