Two ideas: Use dmsetup directly to hide the problematic PE. e.g. dmsetup table vg1-lvol1 to display the table, Work out which sector(s) are the problem and replace them with an 'error' line Edit a (current) VG backup file to 'move' 1 extent elsewhere. e.g. 1 segment containing the problematic extent turns into 3 segments Alasdair -- agk@redhat.com _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
