You gave tons of other output below, but what would be really helpful is a vgdisplay -v vg and an lvdisplay vg/backup. You also asked about removing vg/usr, however that lv only shows up in dmsetup table. Is there a snapshot being taken? Is there an active snapshot volume? Sounds like the volume group is actually locked right now. -- Zac Slade krakrjak@volumehost.net ICQ:1415282 YM:krakrjak AIM:ttyp99 _______________________________________________ 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/
