Hello All, Just wanted to give a special thanks to Anders Widman and Heinz Mauelshagen for their help in resolving the error condition I was receiving with my disk devices while trying to run vgexport. It was, in fact, duplicate PV entries in the directory /etc/lvmconf Apparently, the devices were used previously as part of another volume group and the entries were never cleaned up! I am back up and running now so thanks! I have a quick question on the ability of LVM with respect to redudant paths. With my HP servers we are able to run vgextend after vgcreate has created a volume group to indicate an alternate path. Like so: # pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c2t0d1 # pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c2t1d1 # mkdir /dev/vgoradata # mknod <truncated> # vgcreate /dev/vgoradata /dev/dsk/c2t0d1 <Now, here is what I would like to do with LVM on Linux> # vgextend /dev/vgoradata /dev/dsk/c2t1d1 # lvcreate -l 4000 -n oradata /dev/vgoradata # lvextend -m 1 /dev/vgoradata/oradata Now, I am using 1.0.3 and before I tear my current setup down I was wondering if there is a way to do the same thing with LVM for Linux (maybe 2.0 supports this???). Okay, again, thank you for your time!!!
