Hello,
can anybody tell me what the best way is to import a volume group, when the
vg's name already exists in the system?
Many Linux installations (like Fedora or RedHat) use default names for volume
groups. Whenever the issue arises to access the VGs from another system,
trying to imprt the VG leads to an inconsistent LVM database.
I failed to rename the still exported VG, which is already plugged into
thethis leads to a wrong checksum.
So: what is the best solution?
Best regards
Oliver Tennert
