HI ALL as first thing, i say hallo to you. now i tell you my problem: on a controler raid (i2o devices) i have a debian distro. Recently i have enlarged the logical volumes on this controler. All seemed ok, i was able to remount the file systems and to copy and install programs and data on resized volumes. So, i was out of office and the development server was tuned off by person who wasn't me (so i don't know what is the matter, if happened any thing ). later, when in was in office i have turn on the server and the vgscan failed, it said " ..omissis... only found 499 of 500 LE for LV /dev/volume1/lgv1(0)" . I don't undestand what was happened. It is possible that a bad tuned off make a problem as this? Any body know the answer? To solve the trouble i thinked to do in this way: to reduce the LV lgv1 of some LE , in this way the info about the number of LE will rewrite and (i hope) the problem vanish.The idea seems good, isn't? But i can't do this because the volume group is inactive. Anybody know a method to active a volume group also if vgscan fail? Please, i MUST to recove the data on the lv, we don't have a backup policy >:^> _______________________________________________ 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/
