Could someone please give me a fish (tell me how to un-jam my LVM) and
maybe even teach the LVM drivers/utilities to fish as well?
Use pvscan / pvs -v to work out which devices you want to see and which you don't
then change the filter in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf so you only see the right ones.
Thanks Alasdair.
It looks like my problem is actually deeper than I originally thought;
# vgdisplay -v foobar
[snip]
--- Physical volumes ---
PV Name /dev/hda2
PV UUID weM5FG-L0Li-Ir7y-0B2z-MJoq-tvAg-C2Q19E
PV Status allocatable
Total PE / Free PE 16672 / 0
PV Name /dev/hda1
PV UUID 85M9M7-QsLh-dVKf-xfU3-ua4h-Ks4h-QGrMhu
PV Status allocatable
Total PE / Free PE 3578 / 26
PV Name unknown device
PV UUID PtbIxo-EmRo-ML7J-yhqx-gglD-ZayH-X6tuWE
PV Status allocatable
Total PE / Free PE 4535 / 4535
Hmm, now how can I use vgreduce on an read-only VG to remove an unknown
PV?
# vgreduce --removemissing foobar
Gone.
