Hi, I want run LVM with 3 devices, one is lokal disk part. an other two are /dev/nda and /dev/ndb, block device created with enbd.y I have problem with pvcreat on disk part. /dev/hda3. Typo of /dev/hda3 is 0x8e (Linux LVM). When I run pvcreate, it looks ok: # pvcreate -v /dev/hda3 pvcreate -- locking logical volume manager pvcreate -- checking physical volume name "/dev/hda3" pvcreate -- getting physical volume size pvcreate -- checking maximum physical volume size pvcreate -- checking partition type pvcreate -- creating new physical volume pvcreate -- setting up physical volume for /dev/hda3 with 148531824 sectors pvcreate -- writing physical volume data to disk "/dev/hda3" pvcreate -- physical volume "/dev/hda3" successfully created pvcreate -- unlocking logical volume manager Now, I want pvdisplay: # pvdisplay /dev/hda3 pvdisplay -- ERROR "pv_read(): pv_create_name_from_kdev_t" no VALID physical volume "/dev/hda3" Everyone know where the problem is ? Thank a lot, Marek Jan PS sorry, my english is really bad :-) _______________________________________________ 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/
