Hello, one of my disks went broke and I don't have a backup for everything. I was using LVM and /dev/vg/home with ReiserFS on it is damaged. Currently I am creating an image of /dev/vg/home using dd_rescue. The only thing I need to know is, if this is supposed to work with a LVM partition. Is the dump of /dev/vg/home a normal (pure) ReiserFS image like if I would dump a regular /dev/hdaX or does it contain some kind of LVM metadata? Should I better dump the whole LVM partition (/dev/hda3) or is my way of accessing the vg the way to go? Thanks in advance for your help. -- Daniel Khan _______________________________________________ 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/
