I am getting warning message "Incorrect metadata area header checksum"
LVM How to ask for a file on /etc/lvm/archive, I don't have any
VolumeGroupName_XXXXX.vg file; seems like my system works fine, but I
have the concern about this warning message. Do any of you have some
idea how to fix this problem? Following are some outputs to fdisk and
LVM commands
