RedHat 9 2.4.20-31.9 I have a volume group on /dev/sda1 that isn't being recognized at boot time. I tried doing a vgcfgrestore -n vg00 /dev/sda1 but it replied that there was no physical volume information on /dev/sda1. The hardware raid array says there are no physical problems with any of the disks, so it's not a disk failure... Is it safe to do a "pvcreate /dev/sda1" on disks that contain data? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Address AutoComplete - You start.
