Hi Dieter, I will try this idea out and post the results to the list. Many thanks Shaun In your case, I would suggest to create an independent volume group on the other disk with a different VG-name. The LVs may have the same names on both VGs. If you put them into different hosts, you may synchronize/backup them via network. Else you may put both VGs into the same hosts without problems, mounting the LVs manually and copy the data directly. Don't worry about any config-files to save. You may connect any LVM disk to any IDE port and it should be recognized automatically. If you move an VG from one host to an other, you should do an "vgexport" first. I don't know if this is still necessary with LVM2. I accidentally moved VGs back and forth even without using lvexport and did not found a problem. Dieter. _______________________________________________ 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/ Op dit e-mailbericht is een disclaimer van toepassing, welke te vinden is op http://www.xb.nl/disclaimer.html
