Seems I don?t have that backup dir, don?t even have a /etc/lvm dir... I have tried to shrink the fs but the drive seems to hang the system when I reach the bad blocks. Since I use ext3 I cant "cut" the fs off like I would be able to do with like reiserFS... anyone have any ideas of what to do ? I have been trying to move stuff of the lvm too to free som space, but the drive hangs everytime there is a dir that?s located on the crashed disk... It would be great with some handeling of crashed drives... some fault tolerance... -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: linux-lvm-admin@sistina.com [mailto:linux-lvm-admin@sistina.com] För Joe Thornber Skickat: den 27 juli 2003 14:32 Till: linux-lvm@sistina.com Ämne: Re: Need to remove broken hdd, and need to move the stuff i can from the broken disk On Sun, Jul 27, 2003 at 11:12:10AM +0200, ^YosH^ wrote: > Yes, pvmove tells me I don?t have enough free extents... isn?t there any > command for like forcing to move as much as possible of the data to > other disks... if not, its worth a feature request... is there any way > to find out what data is on the disk I need to replace? I'm sure Alasdair could tell you a way to find out using the lvs command. I tend to just look at /etc/lvm/backup/<vg name>. Send this file to me (off list) if you have trouble interpreting it. You'll probably want to shrink the fs/volume that is on the bad pv before doing the move. - Joe _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
