Hello, I've got a big problem. I lost one disk of my vg. The VG spans over hda4, hdb1 and hdd1. I use Logical Volume Manager 0.9.1_beta7. I've replaced it with the same disk and tried to do a vgcfgrestore -vv -n vg00 -o /dev/hdd1 /dev/hdc1 but ist says: vgcfgrestore -- locking logical volume manager vgcfgrestore -- restoring volume group "vg00" from "/etc/lvmconf/vg00.conf" vgcfgrestore -- checking existence of "/etc/lvmconf/vg00.conf" vgcfgrestore -- reading volume group data for "vg00" from "/etc/lvmconf/vg00.conf" vgcfgrestore -- reading physical volume data for "vg00" from "/etc/lvmconf/vg00.conf" vgcfgrestore -- reading logical volume data for "vg00" from "/etc/lvmconf/vg00.conf" vgcfgrestore -- checking volume group consistency of "vg00" vgcfgrestore -- checking volume group consistency of "vg00" vgcfgrestore -- reading physical volume "/dev/hdc1" vgcfgrestore -- checking for new physical volume "/dev/hdc1" vgcfgrestore -- size of physical volume /dev/hdc1 differs from backup The next thing that makes me woder ist the output of pvdata -PP: PV Name /dev/hda4 VG Name vg00 PV Size 34.89 GB / NOT usable 2.66 MB [LVM: 155 KB] PV# 1 PV Status available Allocatable yes (but full) Cur LV 3 PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 8930 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 8930 PV UUID QdcPBs-QIwO-LdVf-KU4Q-2VtZ-YIpy-TjMsUV pv_dev 0:3 system_id (none)1007200862 pv_on_disk.base 0 pv_on_disk.size 1024 vg_on_disk.base 1024 vg_on_disk.size 4608 pv_uuidlist_on_disk.base 6144 pv_uuidlist_on_disk.size 32896 lv_on_disk.base 39424 lv_on_disk.size 84296 pe_on_disk.base 123904 pe_on_disk.size 2666496 PV Name /dev/hdb1 VG Name vg00 PV Size 37.31 GB / NOT usable 1.41 MB [LVM: 158 KB] PV# 2 PV Status available Allocatable yes Cur LV 3 PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 9550 Free PE 3361 Allocated PE 6189 PV UUID xLkHYY-DbeL-mdOr-do4F-QbOA-x710-RdLuYb pv_dev 0:3 system_id k6ii5001007291048 pv_on_disk.base 0 pv_on_disk.size 1024 vg_on_disk.base 1024 vg_on_disk.size 4608 pv_uuidlist_on_disk.base 6144 pv_uuidlist_on_disk.size 32896 lv_on_disk.base 39424 lv_on_disk.size 84296 pe_on_disk.base 123904 pe_on_disk.size 1354240 Should the system_id not be the same? How could I change the system_id? vgscan dosen't find any volume groups. How can I get the data from hda4 and hdb1?
