Yes.

OK, I shall try that tomorrow. But a quick look at
vgdisplay -P -v shows:
VG data differs between PVs /dev/hde and /dev/hdf3
Partial mode. Incomplete volume groups will be activated read-only.

All PVs that should be in the VG are there (hdf3 was the one
I added (and removed again) later to move hde to).
So, *this* output looks OK to me as far as the PVs are
concerned, but I shall have a look at the text backup file
as you suggested.
thanks for the help
Jelle.
