Hi all,
I need to move a lvm
volme over to a new os install. And this is what i did.
Before installing
the new os, i did a vgexport name
and acording to the
howto, all i need to do on my new os is pvscan and then vgimport name /dev/dev1
+ + + +
However when trying
to import it i get these messages:
pvscan -- reading
all physical volumes (this may take a while....)
pvscan -- inactive
PV "/dev/sdc1" is in no VG [111.76GB]
pvscan -- total: 1
[111.76GB] / in use: 0 [0] / in no VG: 1 [111.76GB]
Its supposed to say
something like this: (paste from the howto)
pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this
may take a while...)
pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/sdb1" is in EXPORTED VG "design" [996 MB / 996 MB free]
pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/sdb2" is in EXPORTED VG "design" [996 MB / 244 MB free]
pvscan -- total: 2 [1.95 GB] / in use: 2 [1.95 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0]
pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/sdb1" is in EXPORTED VG "design" [996 MB / 996 MB free]
pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/sdb2" is in EXPORTED VG "design" [996 MB / 244 MB free]
pvscan -- total: 2 [1.95 GB] / in use: 2 [1.95 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0]
If i try the
vgimport i get this message:
vgimport -- ERROR
"pv_read(): PV identifier invalid" reading physical volume
"/dev/sda1"
Anyone got a hint
what i need to do to get this LVM up and running again ?
