vgcfgrestore -- can't restore part of active volume group "vg01"
I'm trying to restore the volume group as vgscan returns:
# vgscan
vgscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
vgscan -- found active volume group "vg01"
vgscan -- ERROR "vg_read_with_pv_and_lv(): current PV" can't get data of volume
group "vg01" from physical volume(s)
vgscan -- "/etc/lvmtab" and "/etc/lvmtab.d" successfully created
vgscan -- WARNING: This program does not do a VGDA backup of your volume group
What's the problem?
vgcfgrestore -d -n vg01 /dev/hde results in the last few lines being:
<4444> lvm_check_chars -- CALLED with name: "vg01" <4444> lvm_check_chars -- LEAVING with ret: 0 <333> vg_check_name -- LEAVING with ret: 0 <22> vg_status -- LEAVING with ret: 0 <1> vg_check_active -- LEAVING with ret: 1 vgcfgrestore -- can't restore part of active volume group "vg01"
Here are the results of "vgdisplay -v;pvscan;lvmdiskscan" and "pvdata -PP /dev/hde"
