I was in the middle of doing pvmove for all my lv's which resided on two disks, that were being moved to a newly created raid5 pv. Things got all crappy, and now I get this: ~# pvmove --abort -v Finding all volume groups Finding volume group "swissdisk_1" VG swissdisk_1 metadata too large for circular buffer ABORTING: Failed to write new data locations to disk. VG swissdisk_1 metadata too large for circular buffer ABORTING: Failed to write new data locations to disk. I'm unable to recover from this. Is there any way to forcefully remove the failed pv's? Perhaps clean this up? I can do nothing with this vg until this is resolved, and I cannot lose the data on the volumes. -- Debian - http://www.debian.org/ Linux 1394 - http://www.linux1394.org/ Subversion - http://subversion.tigris.org/ _______________________________________________ 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/
