-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Kernel: 2.4.20, stock lvm, debian system with xfs patches. MD shows the right size of around 80G, LVM thinks the PV is much larger (). 1) How can I fix this without destroying the data? 2) How can I avoid this in the future. I still have a spare 45G drive in the system, so I can add it as a PV, pvmove the data, destroy md6, recreate it, pvmove the data back and see that all is ok. In fact, I think I'll just go ahead and do so... mdadm --detail /dev/md/6: /dev/md/6: Version : 00.90.00 Creation Time : Sun Dec 28 17:33:02 2003 Raid Level : raid1 Array Size : 80003584 (76.30 GiB 81.92 GB) Device Size : 80003584 (76.30 GiB 81.92 GB) Raid Devices : 2 Total Devices : 2 Preferred Minor : 6 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Update Time : Sun Dec 28 17:33:02 2003 State : dirty, no-errors Active Devices : 2 Working Devices : 2 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 33 3 0 active sync /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part3 1 57 3 1 active sync /dev/ide/host4/bus1/target0/lun0/part3 UUID : 8c24286e:6f758b5a:8d6c9575:d22731fa Events : 0.1 pvdisplay /dev/md/6: - --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/md/6 VG Name shaktivg PV Size 148.80 GB [312062464 secs] / NOT usable 4.31 MB [LVM: 272 KB] PV# 3 PV Status available Allocatable yes Cur LV 10 PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 38092 Free PE 28645 Allocated PE 9447 PV UUID jeVyqI-g2RE-xHF6-Nfo5-rT40-rGYK-65iJZp - -- - -rupa -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.7, an Emacs/PGP interface iQEVAwUBP/APNXHDM4ucEopdAQGpoQgAsDptX0/pSxJFPDY9R9i2EbVK+D6O0ieY Rg0436j8STek0AcF/CyvG6B0p8yYWoaubtDOVMNv0EdLU0LzIU72SstgOLIeQWXO +oLHTgvDcd72gjjSrVJ0tKhubBLSz6EcfjbqM5wpyCDoP52/GyF9YPZllgahpH0p ayecX1Doi53OOFdSn2T2IIVn0NfXniEhprC17pPzinSfjZsSTsdk6EG70ZTFLkhA MzzCw/avSp4HphmMZ1j+iJ2QgFQd07ksTwKcqxBuzVIAWN50ox+RepZeUVhKalfz 9R0JRho58HZVRo2OB6B9xnpukE6y28Bl56S4VVD5Zv53rIxUp82vIg== =s/SN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 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/
