IIRC there has been trouble with pvmove > and lockups before, so try to upgrade to newest version. We were using 1.0.4, so updated to 1.0.7 today. No luck tough. Computer locks up completly at certain PE's. Any clues how i can recover any data from it ? As it complains now, of missing inodes when i mount it and try to accesss it. So i cant really do anything. I guess those was moved from the broken harddisk to the new one, but never got updated because the computer locked up.
