Now I have done this. The VG is working, the two LVs that are not on the broken hard disk are also ok. The only problem is the third LV that spanned to the broken hard disk. It has an ext3 FS and if I run e2fsck on it the e2fsck tries to recover the journal which I think is not working (it repeats the message: "/dev/Data/Daten: recovering journal") I also tried to deactivate the journal, but tun2fs will not delete it because it needs to be recovered.

That might still leave you with unusable LVs in case their beginning is gone with the failed disk. If you decide to do that get back to us in case you've got installation related questions.
