--partial doesn't seem to be a valid option for vgreduce. Or did you mean something like 'lvchange -ay --partial /dev/typhoon/backup' or 'vgchange -ay --partial typhoon'? [root@typhoon ~]# lvchange -ay --partial /dev/typhoon/backup Partial mode. Incomplete volume groups will be activated read-only. Couldn't find device with uuid '5Ztw2o-Ooa8-AYX3-XE56-HR9T-uRQI-75YTuA'. Couldn't find device with uuid 'O4kqGt-VEKo-yavU-R8yN-PGjF-mWjF-a9tdWt'. One or more specified logical volume(s) not found. [root@typhoon ~]# vgchange -ay --partial typhoon Partial mode. Incomplete volume groups will be activated read-only. Couldn't find device with uuid '5Ztw2o-Ooa8-AYX3-XE56-HR9T-uRQI-75YTuA'.

However, lvdisplay and vgdisplay both still fail and I'm no closer to dumping the unwanted LV and establishing a clean configuration. As for versions, I'm running FC3 patched up to the latest and greatest: [root@typhoon ~]# rpm -q lvm2 lvm2-2.00.25-1.01 [root@typhoon ~]# uname -a Linux typhoon.aput.net 2.6.11-1.27_FC3 #1 Tue May 17 20:27:37 EDT 2005 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux Jason On Jun 25, 2005, at 8:30 AM, Alasdair G Kergon wrote: > > --partial ? > > else what version? > -- Jason Heiss PGP key: http://ofb.net/~jheiss/jheiss.pgp.txt
